So horrible. And, according to the article another 13 y/o was recently also gang raped and murdered. India's courts have been blaming the victims and their families for so long, Amnesty Int'l or some UN body needs to step in, imo ... but what can they do? The big players in the world sanction other countries - why not those that treat women and children in horrible ways like disposable garbage. This makes me furious.
