Kerala auto-rickshaw rape: Three arrested

Thiruvananthapuram, May 6 (IBNS) The police have arrested three people over the gang-rape of a nursing student in an auto-rickshaw in Kerala, reports said.

The girl is currently undergoing treatment in a hospital.

The incident occurred on Tuesday at Varkala town in the state.

The incident occurred at a time when the state is witnessing protests over rape and murder of a law student in Ernakulam district.

As gruesome details of the rape and murder spill out -- the girl's body bore 30 marks of stabbing and her intestines pulled out -- and the police await the post mortem report, most people are drawing a parallel with the Nirbhaya case -- the gang rape of a Delhi student in a moving bus in 2012.
