A Japanese woman was abducted by three men while doing research near a Buddhist pilgrimage centre in eastern India. She was held near the centre at Bodh Gaya where Gautam Buddha is said to have found enlightenment under a tree There she was brutaly gang raped and held for several weeks. "We have arrested three people from Kolkata and two from Gaya in Bihar. This gang used to operate from Kolkata and used to dupe and sometimes physically abuse Japanese tourists" said Joint Commissioner of Police, PK Ghose. "She was forced on a bus from Digha to Bodh Gaya where two members of the gang raped her" Ghose said While two of the accused have been charged with rape, three others have been booked for cheating,criminal conspiracy and kidnapping among other offences. The woman managed to escape from the secluded basement where she was held to Varanasi, a city in the neighbouring state.Afterwards she reached Kolkata where she lodged a complaint of fraudulent withdrawal of money and rape. Following a spate of high profile rapes India has doubled the prison term for rape to 20years, it has also made it a crime for officers not to investigate once a complaint of rape is made.
