Male friend of Indian gang-rape victim claims police wouldn't help him carry her bleeding body and waited TWO HOURS before taking them to hospital
A male friend of the Indian gang-rape victim who was with her when she was attacked has described how he had to carry her bleeding body into a police van on his own - because none of the officers wanted to touch her.
No passersby stopped to help them as they lay naked and bleeding in the road after they were thrown off bus.
When the police finally arrived they wasted two hours arguing over which police station was responsible before finally taking the victims to a faraway hospital.
The gang of six men aboard the bus - fitted with curtains and tinted windows - had planned to trap them.
The 23-year-old woman was gang-raped by the men, including the driver, who also violated her with an iron bar causing immense internal damage that lead to her death.
Police denied claims that officers debated for half an hour before taking the rape victim and her friend to a hospital and that police vans reached the rape victim and her friend within three minutes of receiving the alert.
'We were without clothes. We tried to stop people passing by. Several auto rickshaws, cars and bikes slowed down but no one stopped for about 25 minutes. Then someone on patrol stopped and called the police,' he told Zee News.
He claimed three police vans arrived at the scene after about 45 minutes, but wasted time in deciding under which police station’s jurisdiction the case fell.
He alleged nobody, including the police, gave them clothes or called an ambulance.
'They were just watching us,' he said, adding someone gave them a part of bed sheet to cover his friend after repeated requests.
'My friend was bleeding profusely. But instead of taking us to a nearby hospital, they (police) took us to a far away hospital.'
He said he carried his badly injured friend to the PCR van on his own as the policemen didn’t help them because the girl was bleeding profusely.
'Even at the hospital we were made to wait and I had to literally beg for clothes.' he said.
'I was hit on the head. I was not able to walk. I was not able to move my hands for two weeks,' he said, detailing the injuries he suffered on that horrific night.
It has emerged that a sixth suspect, who is believed to be a juvenile and is expected to be tried separately, was the cruelest of all as he is alleged to have done to the unconscious victim - after she had been raped.
The newspaper reported that he pulled her intestines out with his bare hands and was also responsible for suggesting that she be thrown naked from the bus.
Yesterday, her father called for the hanging of those responsible for the attack saying 'the death penalty is compulsory for a crime so great.'
