Woman Arrested For Ordering Gang Rape and Murder of Her 9-Year-Old Stepdaughter

印度女子指使儿子伙同他人当面轮奸和谋杀其9岁继女被捕  

Authorities in India have arrested a woman and four others after a nine-year-old girl was gang-raped, murdered and mutilated in Kashmir.

据美国《新闻周刊》网站的消息：近日，一名9岁的女孩在克什米尔被轮奸，谋杀和肢解。随后，印度当局逮捕了一名女子和其他4名涉案人员。

资料图：2012年12月23日，印度民众在新德里举行抗议，呼吁保障女性安全。

Police revealed that the girl’s stepmother, 36, instructed her 14-year-old son and two of his teenage friends, aged 14 and 19, to rape the girl in front of her on August 24, reported AFP.

据法新社援引警方的消息，8月24号，受害女孩的继母指示她14岁的儿子和她儿子的两位朋友（分别为14岁和19岁），当着她的面强奸了这名女孩。

The woman allegedly orchestrated the attack because she was jealous that the child was her husband’s favorite.

据称，这名妇女策划此次袭击的原因是，她嫉妒这个女孩曾受到她丈夫的宠爱。

“A special investigation team (SIT) headed by the Uri SDPO was set up. Sustained questioning of the stepmother and other suspects revealed the bone-chilling crime,” Times of India quoted the police as saying.

《印度时报》援引警方的消息称：“在乌里法律援助署（Uri SDPO）的领导下，警方成立了一个特别调查队小组。在对继母和其他嫌疑人的持续审问后，这起令人毛骨悚然的犯罪事实被供出。”

The victim’s discomposing body was found in a jungle in the Baramulla district on Tuesday, 12 days after she was reported missing by her father. An autopsy revealed that her body had been tortured and burnt with acid.

在涉案女孩的父亲报警她失踪后的第12天，也即周二，这名受害女孩的尸体在巴拉姆拉(Baramulla)区的一处丛林中被发现。尸检结果显示，她的身体遭到摧残和硫酸灼伤。

"It was found that the stepmother had been nursing a grudge against the second wife of her husband, and her children," Imtiyaz Hussain, a senior police officer, said, reported NDTV.

新德里电视台（NDTV）援引高级警官伊米亚兹-侯赛因的话称：“调查发现，这位继母一直对丈夫的第二任妻子和她的子女怀有嫉妒之心。”

Hussian said that a 19-year-old man, another of the accused, gruesomely killed the pre-teen with an axe after the group had gang-raped her, reported BBC. He also confirmed that the teenage offenders had already confessed to the rape and murder.

据英国广播公司（BBC）的报道，侯赛因表示，在实施轮奸后，本案中另一名19岁的被告人用斧头残忍地杀害了这名女孩。他还证实，这些少年犯对强奸和谋杀事实供认不讳。

“They will be sent to a juvenile home and dealt with according to the state’s juvenile law,” Hussain said.

侯赛因说：“这些少年犯将被遣送到青少年拘留所，并依据该邦的法律处理。”

“Physical condition and preliminary forensic analysis of dead body substantiated all these facts,” police said in a statement issued Tuesday.

警方在周二发布的一份声明中指出：“死者的身体状况和法医对尸体的初步分析证实了所有这些事实。”

The horrific rape is the second of its kind to occur in the northern state of Kashmir in recent months. Earlier this year, a Muslim girl, 8, was gang-raped and murdered in the Kathua district.

此案是近几个月来在克什米尔北部发生的第二起类似的强奸暴行。今年早些时候，一名8岁的穆斯林女孩在卡图阿 (Kathua)区遭到轮奸和谋杀。

In April, the story made headlines after two ministers from the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) attended a protest over the arrest of the eight Hindu men accused.

今年4月，印度教民族主义者人民党(BJP)的两名部长参加了一场抗议活动，对逮捕了八名受指控的印度教男子表示反对。这件事情登上了报纸头条。（译：蒋小涵）
