Both India and China view baby girls as inferior to boys. Both have long-standing historic bias against women. But, whereas the late Chairman Mao once declared, “women hold up half the sky” and Chinese girls now face no discrimination in entering higher education or seeking jobs, the same cannot be said about India. Why?
Times of India: “Akshay Thakur, the sixth and final accused who was one of the helpers in the bus, was arrested from his house in Bihar’s Aurangabad district this evening.
Thakur was arrested by a special team of Delhi Police after several raids were conducted at different locations in Bihar.
“Since Tuesday, a special team of Delhi Police was conducting raids in Bihar. The last absconding accused Akshay Thakur was arrested from Bihar’s Aurangabad Friday evening,” said a police officer.
According to the officer, the accused is being brought to Delhi.
Four other accused were arrested Monday and Tuesday while the fifth accused, who is claiming to be a juvenile, was apprehended Thursday night.
The fifth accused, who claims to be 17 years old, was detained in a late night raid Thursday from Uttar Pradesh’s Badaun by a special team of Delhi Police.
Since he claims to be a minor, police refused to divulge his details.
“He will be taken to a juvenile justice home after confirmation that he is a minor,” said the officer.
Union home secretary RK. Singh said it is yet to be confirmed whether he is a minor.
The savage rape and torture occurred Sunday night when the woman and her male friend boarded a private bus, used for ferrying school children, in south Delhi after watching a movie.”
