| 2017-01-15 |
| [DAWN] GUJRAT: Two lady health workers (LHWs) posted at a Basic Health Unit (BHU) in Bheelwal were gang-raped by four faceless myrmidons, according to information gathered on Saturday. The gangsters also took away Rs8,000 and other valuables but it could not be confirmed whether they had come to the BHU for robbery. The incident took place at the public health facility within the Tanda police jurisdiction on Dec 29. It was kept under wraps until the women victims approached Gujrat District Police Officer Sohail Zafar Chatha on Friday. It is said that there was a third lady health worker at the heath facility. The severity of the assault on her is not yet clear although it has been learnt that the gang of four men had kept her locked in a room for a considerable period of time. Speaking to Dawn, the Gujrat DPO confirmed the gang-rape and said police had traced the four suspects who would be placed in durance vile Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw! soon. He said the two LHWs would reside in the residential rooms of the BHU and they had informed their superiors about the ghastly incident but continued to work. The Tanda police had initially registered a robbery case under Section 392 of the Pakistain Penal Code as it was complained that the gangsters had taken away Rs8,000 and valuables such as the UPS system and battery, a biometric machine and a mobile phone after locking the watchmen in a room. |

| #5 He always condescends. It goes along with the purple prose. |

| #4 I know, Pappy, but he condescended. One needs to be superior for that. |

| #2 The heading of this section is India-Pakistan, my dear Thriger Flolugum1523, and Dawn is a Pakistani newspaper. Couple that with the reference to the penal colde of Pakistan, and the smart money would bet that this took place in Pakistan, where such behaviour is only somewhat more common nowadays than in India. Today's India is in so many ways not the India Mr. Wife knew so well in 1990, and even less the India where a girlfriend of mine spent a month sleeping unmolested on the beach of Bombay -- as it was then -- while she waited for the mail to deliver money and airplane tickets from home after she was invited to leave the novitiate of Mother Theresa's order. |

| #1 You may not have noticed a map recently, but Gujarat is a State in India and NOT in Pakistan. Filing a Law in the Penal Code of Pakistan? You are off by about 800 miles at a rough guess. Rupees are a currency used in India AND Pakistan so perhaps that confused you. At any rate I am a little confused...a spelling thing off by one letter A. But Gujarat is NOT in Pakistan. Gujarat is roughly the California of India. Now there is a Bhilvada in Gujarat, could that be the place? A taluka is a Police and tax district designation..Police district might be the way to translate that. Now there IS a Gujrat in Punjab not in Gujarat. And Punjab IS in Pakistan. in which case who cares if Moslems rape Moslems. Fine, Moslems will rape your dog. As long as it wasn't India, I am OK with that. |
