Girl raped & burned alive

POLICE arrested 14 men after a teenager was raped then later burned alive at her home in eastern India.

The 16-year-old was abducted from her home when her family was away in the latest case of sexual violence in the country.

The family complained to the village council which yesterday ordered two men to pay a fine of 50,000 rupees (€700).

Police said the punishment enraged the men, who beat the girl’s parents before setting her on fire.
