A man in the capital city of Uttar Pradesh, India, has died after the driver of a private ambulance took him off of life support and threw him out of the vehicle so he would have the opportunity to rape his wife.
According to The Times of India, the incident occurred late last month after the woman hired the emergency vehicle to escort her, her brother, and her husband home after he was discharged from a hospital in Lucknow due to financial limitations.
Speaking with police, the woman explained that on the way home, the emergency vehicle driver asked her to sit in the front seat next to him to avoid being stopped by police.
“I was forced to sit in the front seat, and then the driver and his companion started molesting me. I objected, but they did not listen to me,” she said, adding that her husband and brother sensed something was wrong and began trying to intervene from the back of the ambulance.
As a result, the men stopped the ambulance near the Chhawani police station, where they “forcibly removed the oxygen mask from [the woman’s] husband and threw him out” of the car before locking her brother in the front and proceeding to molest her.
In addition to sexually assaulting her, the woman also informed police that the men looted over $120 USD from her purse, jewelry, her identification card, and her husband’s hospital reports.
It’s not. Imagine if you heard of the shootings in America, and only the shootings. You’d think that every school or public place was dangerous, but in reality, shootings are rare generally.
India has a lot of rapey bastards, but it also has a population about twice that of Europe. India is definitely a shit hole that needs to be fixed, but it’s hardly everywhere all the time.
And yes, it’s really bad over there compared to the rest of the (western) world. They need to get there shit sorted. I also feel somewhat hopeful because from my experience, the younger educated population is “saner” and doesn’t absorb the local culture (both good and bad parts) around them due to social media and what I call “Americanization.”
- Someone who left the shit hole
I dunno what that other guy is smoking, I appreciated the level-headed perspective your explanation offered.
