70-Yr-Old Nun Gang-Raped During Robbery In India


A nun in her 70s has been gang-raped by a group of robbers when she tried to prevent them from robbing a Christian missionary school in eastern India.

A police officer says the nun was admitted to hospital in serious condition after the attack, which was committed early on Saturday by seven to eight robbers at the Convent of Jesus and Mary School in West Bengal state’s Nadia district.

The attack is the latest incident to focus attention on the scourge of sexual violence in India.

The officer says police are searching for the bandits, who escaped with some cash, a mobile phone, a laptop computer and a camera after vandalising the school.
