Well, I don't think Delhi media carried this gibberish. The tragedy should not be talked about loosely and there should not be any such nonsense about status of a victim. This woman did this in Gujarat also.
For what it is worth, this was an ordinary girl whose father had a humble job and sold his village land to educate her because she was bright and hard working. She was engaged to a good boy of more or less equal status [no details because of confidentiality issues] and they were soon to marry – possibly soon after she completed her exams and got her degree plus job. They went to a 6-9 pm movie and were returning in a bus when the whole thing happened.
I do hope you agree that religion, race, caste, wealth can have no bearing on the crime.
Arundhati if she did say this – what can I say. It is criminally irresponsible and may be that is why the Delhi media gave her the bargepole treatment. Anyone reporting such a thing in Delhi in the current atmosphere, well I don't want to think about it

sandhya, i read in regional newspapers that our prima donna arundhathi roy has done her bit of attention grabbing by saying that this was an instance of a rich girl being raped by a group of poor boys, and hence the media overdrive. if there is any truth in it she needs to see a doctor/phsychiatrist. that woman has really gone berserk. but i am holding my verdict until it's validated. can anyone help?

3] Since family from UP, some officers offered to take them to Varanasi – Kashi is anyway the more prestigious place for the final departure – but government said let family decide and their wishes were followed. So stop your LIES OK. 4] Medical disagreement is neither here nor there at this stage. 5] Public had NO right to gather anywhere – it is not a public tamasha – and the people of Delhi knew all this would happen the previous day itself because the media was informed and told us, and respected the privacy [TV journalists did, print media did go to Ballia and give information from there, which was not necessary at all]. 6] There was nothing sinister about anything the Govt did so please do shut up, and Ballia is in UP not Bihar, and nowhere in the world are bodies paraded from city to city for kith and kin, OK 7] Parents do NOT want to meet the media. If and when they do, they will do so themselves and don't need American citizens to shout for them. 8] Indian law makes disclosure of rape victim names illegal, the fake names are media gibberish [too smart]. 9] Now that victim is dead, you may get the joy of knowing her real name. Why don't you wait for events to unravel themselves? And why don't you get hyperactive about rapes in America, school shootouts, gun law etc. After all, you live there, not here Sandhya From: media_monitor5@yahoogroups.com [mailto:media_monitor5@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of S kumar 1. The body reached Delhi airport at 3.30 AM and aircraft taken to a remote location. SOnia Gandhi and Manmohan Singh reached, conveyed condolences and the body was taken to the house of the deceased with her parents and brother present, as per media report. 2.Apparently the body reached home at 4.30AM and the Home Secretary alongwith MOS Home were already present to take the body and cremate it secretly before dawn, contrary to the earlier assurance to the family that it would be flown to Varnasi and by road to Ballia where her relatives could pay last respects and cremated at the village, she was born. 3. But the team led by Home Secretary forcibly took the body to Delhi Crematorium, the mother fainted and the brother objected with the wailing helpless father nearby, all ignored by the Govt. and the body was cremated at 7.30AM before Delhi woke up in the winter fog. 4. Some Doctors as well as the parents/brother, were in disagreement of shifting her to Singapore, her already suffering two cardiac arrests and half dead condition. But Group of Ministers decided to shift her so that mass agitations could be avoided if she died in Delhi. The cremation was also carried out post-haste before the public could know the body has arrived and try to gather there!! All these show the sinister inhumane actions of the Govt. in not respecting the family's duty and wishes to show her body to their kith and kin back in Ballia village in Bihar and to cremate her there. Shockingly, the brother or parents were never allowed to meet the media nor the girl's name revealed with fake names circulating and it was Singapore hospital which released the name sa Jyoti from Ballia, Bihar. From: Sucheta Dalal <sucheta@moneylife.in> Hi... dont understand why you wanted her airlifted out of india when she was already sinking or probably brain dead already? Am a little confused. Also understand that her family wnats to talk, so why should she remain faceless and nameless, if the family is ready to go public. Like keenan santos she should be a known symbol of courage and revolution - if her family is okay with it. I hear that her family is being pressured by the government to keep quiet. I dont understand why her funeral had to be hush-hush and quiet -- why not a hero's funeral for her? Would like to hear from you. Sucheta Dalal Managing Editor
