Two rapes in quick succession shock Kolkata

The brutal gang-rape and murder of a 20-year-old girl near Kolkata has shocked everyone. The second year student, who was returning home after college on Friday, was waylaid and dragged into a walled compound by at least six men in broad daylight. She was then raped and murdered. Her autopsy report indicated that she was so badly brutalised, her femur or thigh bone was fractured.
