8 gang rapes in 8 months in Mumbai

An RTI application has shown that Mumbai registered eight gangrapes till mid-August including the Shakti Mill gangrape case. The figure for 2013 is likely to be greater compared to 2012 (eight gangrapes), as in November alone, two gangrapes were reported in Dindoshi and Borivli Link Road. Moreover, cases of single-offender rape are many times more: 229 were reported till mid-August.
