Three confess to killing and gang rape of teenagers

Police say three detained suspects have confessed to the gang rape and slaying of two teenage cousins who were found hanging from a tree in northern India last week.

The search for two additional suspects continued yesterday for a fourth day.

India has a long history of tolerance of sexual violence, but the gang rape and killing of the 14 and 15-year-old cousins in Uttar Pradesh state caused outrage across the nation.
