【印度真相】種姓歧視+輪姦+謀殺，再度引爆印度民憤！_風聞

以下圖文來自美媒CNN的報道（9/30）：來自達利特社區的印度婦女因輪姦而死亡

地方當局説，印度北部北方邦達利特人社區的一名19歲婦女週二死亡，事發在據稱她被上等種姓男子強姦和勒頸導致窒息的兩週後。

Hathras地區警察局長Vikrant Vir在推特上發佈的聲明中説，事件於9月14日發生。受害者首先被送進北方邦的一家醫院，後來因受傷嚴重而被轉移到新德里。

根據哈斯拉斯的警方稱，有四名男子因強姦和謀殺被捕，調查正在進行中。

聲明説，這四名男子均來自較高的種姓，並已根據法律被指控犯有侵害少數民族罪。

在印度基於種姓的等級制度中，達利特人-排名最低，過去曾被稱為“賤民”-遭受嚴重歧視。印度的種姓制度在1950年被正式廢除了，但在生活中的許多方面仍然存在着由2000年的社會等級制度決定的分娩制度。種姓制度對印度教徒進行了分類，定義了他們在社會中的地位，他們可以從事的工作以及可以嫁給誰。

印度主要反對黨國會黨的高級領導人拉胡爾·甘地（Rahul Gandhi）在推特上説：“北方邦的“特定階級”統治該土地殺害了另一名婦女。政府説這是假新聞，並讓受害者喪生。受害人的死亡和政府的冷漠-這些都不是假新聞。”

上個月，一名13歲的達利特女孩在北方邦遭到強姦和謀殺。去年，據稱有兩個達利特兒童在露天排便後被毆打致死。 2018年，該國南部一名來自較低種姓的13歲女孩在該國南部被斬首，據稱是一名來自較高種姓的襲擊者。

爭取達利特人平等權利的倡導者在德里醫院外組織了一次小型集會，星期一該婦女在那兒接受治療。

該小組的負責人錢德拉謝卡爾·阿扎德（Chandrashekhar Azad）在推特上寫道：“我和受害者的家人正在薩夫達容醫院外面抗議。我們將不再容忍這一點。我們將伸張正義。”

包括寶萊塢演員和職業運動員在內的許多印度名人已經利用他們的社交媒體呼籲政府採取保護婦女的政策。

根據印度國家犯罪記錄局（National Crime Records Bureau）的數據，2018年的最新可用數據報告了33,000多起涉嫌強姦的案件-每天約有91起案件。但是專家説，由於性侵犯給人們帶來的恥辱以及受害者所面臨的阻礙他們舉報襲擊的社會障礙，實際人數可能更高。

A 19-year-old woman from the Dalit community in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh died Tuesday, two weeks after she was allegedly gang-raped and strangled by upper caste men, local authorities said.

Hathras district Police Superintendent Vikrant Vir said in a statement posted on Twitter that the incident took place on September 14. The victim was first admitted to a hospital in Uttar Pradesh and and later transferred to New Delhi due to the severity of her injuries.

Four men have been arrested and booked for rape and murder and an investigation is underway, according to the police in Hathras.

All four men were from an upper caste and have also been booked under the law for crimes against minorities, according to the statement.

In India’s caste-based hierarchy, Dalits -- who are ranked the lowest and have been referred to as “untouchables” in the past -- experience severe discrimination. India’s caste system was officially abolished in 1950, but the 2,000-year-old social hierarchy imposed on people by birth still exists in many aspects of life. The caste system categorizes Hindus at birth, defining their place in society, what jobs they can do and who they can marry.

Rahul Gandhi, a senior leader with India’s main opposition Congress Party tweeted that “Uttar Pradesh’s ‘class-specific’ rule of the land has killed another woman. The government said it was fake news and left the victim to die. This unfortunate incident, the death of the victim and the callousness of the government -- none of this is fake news.”

Last month, a 13-year-old Dalit girl was raped and murdered in Uttar Pradesh. Last year, two Dalit children were allegedly beaten to death after defecating in the open. In 2018, a 13-year-old girl from a lower caste was beheaded in the south of the country, allegedly by an assailant coming from a higher caste.

Advocates for equal rights for Dalits organized a small rally outside the Delhi hospital where the woman was being treated on Monday.

The leader of the group, Chandrashekhar Azad tweeted: “Me along with the victim’s family are protesting outside Safdarjung hospital right now. We will not tolerate this anymore. We will get justice.”

A number of Indian celebrities, including Bollywood actors and professional athletes, have used their social media to call on the government to adopt policies to protect women.

According to India’s National Crime Records Bureau, more than 33,000 cases of alleged rape were reported in the latest available figures from 2018 -- roughly 91 cases each day. But experts say that the real number is likely much higher, owing to the shame attached to sexual assault and the social barriers faced by victims that prevents them from reporting attacks.
