People are demanding that the hands, legs of the rapists be chopped off or they be killed under the provisions of the Sharia laws.

Nagercoil (Tamil Nadu) – In a shocking incident, an eight-year-old girl was brutally raped by six persons in Nagercoil, Tamil Nadu. Eight persons including two minors, have been arrested for raping the hungry minor girl who approached a neighbouring home for food. The arrested are identified as Mohammed Nooh (75), Zahadasan (52), Zafir Hussain (53) and Abdul Jafar (68).

According to reports, the girl lives with her father and mother. Her father was rendered jobless and the mother is mentally ill. Left with no food, the girl sought help in the neighbourhood. She was brutally raped by the group that includes minors and senior citizens who live in the neighbourhood.

The gruesome incident came to light only when the girl told her father two days ago that some people were physically hurting her.
