I cannot really understand what happened with their rape laws or whatever the country's view on rape is but I don't think how the current state of things could ever keep such a crime from repeating itself. It is simply shocking to learn of how a rape victim in India who was gang raped 3 years ago could suffer the same horrendous crime today and even much more shocking was that her perpetrators were actually the very same 5 rapists who originally gang raped her. Even more shocking to learn was that these rapists had committed the crime again while they were on bail. Why are they on bail? Why aren't they imprisoned for their crime? What happened to the law? Where's justice? Reference:
The girl was found by a roadside with torn clothes near New Delhi and told police she was attacked by men who'd raped her in 2013. Pictured are Indians protesting violence against women.

That's horrible! To take revenge on her because her family is trying to bring justice for her against the five men is beyond horrific! I hope they are put permanently behind bars this time.

Law in india is too strict that women can file fake rape case on man and take away all of his wealth. The amount of misuse these laws are doing the justice will be even far away. Besides india is feminist country, so a lot of rape cases are way too fabricated to believe in the way reported in media.

With today's advances in criminology and forensic sciences I doubt there will still be so much controversial fabrications. Taking this case into account, I have to say that gang rape is definitely out of this world and very serious - this case itself simply speaks volumes and you cannot be serious enough to take this as another frivolous fabricated account. IMO, these blokes just got enough in them to hire a good lawyer to exploit the loopholes of the law and once they are out, they simply exacted revenge on their very victim. Surely, you don't think that the victim here deserved to be rape even on the first time, do you?

@artemeis Nope. There is indeed fabrications. Many of them are proven in the court. As for gang rape that is possible in this context and not denying that. And buying the law against women is not as easy as you assume in India. Here buying justice requires you to be as rich as warren buffet and bill gates. My point being here communist feminist are making lot of false rape premises for political grounds, I am excluding this case as it was done on village level with victim from lower caste. In the city, you won't find such case at the first place.

@skysnap .. If it is proven in the court then there is no problem na...the point is justice can also be bought! Right? India being feminist country? Oh I agree with your views...applaud your knowledge...female infanticides are a proof that India is a feminist country. Rapidly and alarmingly falling ratios of women to men is a striking proof that India is a feminist country. I wonder if you would say the same if you got married and your wife returned home one day saying she is raped? Oh by the way ...Dowries are harsh realities. Here are the rates....my cousins...1 lakh and 2.5 lakhs 30 odd years ago. About 20 years ago...1 crore. Agreed rates have slipped...because of abortion of female fetuses. But then isn't it a great proof that India is a feminist country? Oh my cousin's ugly grandma said since you don't have brothers, it is your duty to maintain your cousins as they would be lighting the pyre of your father. I agree it is feminist. And recently a man not related to me, just a casual friend on net, who married despite what he believes is a serious ailment that can become terminal illness at any time, and was in bed for about two years following the marriage, but wife did not desert him, and has not worked in regular employment afterwards, and is dependent on his wife for his meals, had the audacity to tell me I need to adopt, and wanted me to adopt him. When I suggested that I adopt a girl instead, he said she was not suitable!!! LOL. Am I glad he has a daughter now! I hope she remains unmarried and some stranger who is a grown up asks her to adopt him. Only with her tears of pain perhaps this person will understand how insulting and selfish his suggestion was. Some beliefs about feminist! Men who hold such old fashioned view about women should be blessed only with girls.

Whatever skysnap said is not entirely true. It is true that some women do accuse RICH guys of raping them. But in general, rape can be proved. Rich guys also tend to buy justice and force the women to accept compromise. It takes a lots of guts to accuse folks of rape because it is a lifelong stigma, with little hope to marry. As yet, there is no confiscation of properties of the rapists. Bail amounts may be fixed, yes. But no confiscation of properties as of now as far as I know. I have also noticed one thing. Men complain that women are rejecting them because they do not earn sufficiently. But when it comes to marrying girls from orphanages they don't want to! After all, they are not likely to get dowries which have been ingrained in them. Those who marry without dowry have ulterior motives, like becoming sissy and staying home. Effectively, wife would have to feed them for the rest of their lives.

@vandana7 Sometimes the laws are not as progressive enough over the crimes around. We just have to accept what is presently established and through more could be done with more civilized petitions and internal audits at the end of the day.

@artemeis . Exactly. What I feel is there will be stray cases like what skysnap's cousin experienced. And they too need to be dealt with seriously. No doubt what so ever about that as that is what creates gender bias. But having said that, we can't prevent serious laws to prevent say 50 cases of wrong against women because there are 5 cases of wrongs by women against men. First we address those 50 cases and then move on to plug in the misuse loopholes. What do you think @skysnap? Tomorrow it could be your wife or your daughter who could be at the wrong end of the story. Wouldn't it be too late to begin any action then?

I agree that they need to really toughen the laws to give women proper justice- I'm shocked by this news.

Believe me, this is another one of those hateful eyeopeners which saw more harm being brought to the already violated victim. I blame the legal system and I blame the law enforcement as well.
