Her rapists killed her and cremated her body – Crowds gathered outside the crematorium

Protesters gathered in the Indian capital today, outside a crematorium, where a 9-year-old girl was allegedly raped and killed in the latest incident of a series of violent sexual crimes  against women in India, which have caused international outcry.

Police say the girl was killed when she went to fetch water Sunday from a crematorium near her home in the Cantonment district of New Delhi.

Her family said that when the girl did not return, they went to look for her, while they saw some of the alleged perpetrators, who were working in the crematorium, cremating her body against the wishes of the family.

The incident sparked outrage within the country and the international community, with the safety of women and girls in India being reduced to a major political issue following the gang rape and murder of a 23-year-old student by a gang on a Delhi bus in 2012. .

Today, about 100 people gathered near the spot, shouting slogans, continuing the day rallies.
