Friend tells of Delhi gang rape attack
The companion of a woman who was gang-raped on a bus in New Delhi has recounted in a TV interview how the pair were attacked for two-and-a-half hours before being thrown on the side of the road, where passers-by ignored them and police debated jurisdiction issues before helping.
The December 16 attack has outraged Indians and led to calls for tougher rape laws and reforms of a police culture that often blames rape victims and refuses to file charges against alleged attackers.
