A minor girl was allegedly raped by her relative in Outer Delhi's Aman Vihar area on Sunday morning. The condition of the girl is stated to be stable.

According to the police, the incident took place around 8:30 am on Sunday. The 15-year old girl had gone to the terrace for some work when her relative befriended her. On seeing no one on the terrace he took her to a corner where he raped her. The incident came to the fore after the girl's family members panicked as the girl did not return for long. They started looking for her but could not find her anywhere. Later the girl was found in an unconscious condition at the room of the accused in the same building. The family members then caught hold of the accused and informed the police.

The girl was rushed to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital in Mangolpuri where she is undergoing treatment. While the victim's family lived on the ground floor, the accused lived on the first floor. The accused man is a distant relative of the victim had come from his village in Bihar for a work opportunity in the Capital. He had moved to the city in March 2018 and his parents were not at home when the incident occurred.

"A case under section 376 (rape) and Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO), 2012 has been registered. Further investigations are underway," said a police officer.

Only on Saturday, President Ram Nath Kovind promulgated an ordinance to give stringent punishment, including the death penalty, for those convicted of raping children below 12 years. According to the Criminal Law (Amendment) Ordinance 2018, new fast-track courts will be set up to deal with rape cases and special forensic kits will be provided to all police stations and hospitals in the long run.

The girl had fought with her parents and boarded the auto asking him to take her to an affordable hotel. The auto driver became suspicious and took her to a police station instead.

According to the police, the incident took place on Friday night. The girl, a south Delhi Resident and pursuing her MBA from a private university, had a fight with her parents after which she left her home with three suitcases of her belongings. The girl took an auto and reached Bangla Sahib Gurudwara where she sat for some time. Auto drive Jassi (40) who was passing by was stopped by the girl. The girl asked him to take her to some affordable hotel in the area. “The auto driver found the girl depressed and hence bought her to the Parliament Street police station. He took her to the public facilitation desk where SI Pooja spoke to her. For three hours the girl did not utter a word. Later she shared her details and her family was traced,” said Madhur Verma, DCP New Delhi.

The Delhi Police has decided to reward the auto driver on Monday morning.

In another incident, the life of a one-and-a-half-year-old baby girl was saved as her alert neighbour caught hold of a drunk man who was trying to abduct her. The incident took place in Outer Delhi’s Mongolpuri area on Saturday afternoon.  

On Saturday afternoon, the accused identified as Yashpal (27) was spotted picking up the little girl and moving in the opposite direction of her house.

A woman in the area raised an alarm and alerted the neighbours following which a crowd gathered and caught hold of the accused.

A 17-year-girl was allegedly gang-raped by three men at gunpoint in the Bhojpur area here on the intervening night of April 19 and 20, the police said on Sunday. The police have registered an FIR against the three accused, however, they are cross-verifying the claims made by the victim. Sources revealed that both the parties have an old rivalry.

According to the police, the victim has stated that on the intervening night of April 19 and 20, the victim was sleeping in the open area of her house with her sister-in-law when the three accused named Amir, Adil and Zail barged into her house.

"The three abducted her and took her to a vacant plot in the village. The trio then stuffed a cloth in her mouth, one of them had a gun with them as well and took turns to rape her. They threatened her with dire consequences if she narrated the ordeal to anyone," said Arvind Maurya, Superintendent Of Police (Rural), Ghaziabad.

Police said according to the victim, they attacked her on the head with the gun butt after which she fell semi-conscious. Later, they threw her in front of her house and fled.

" The girl, however, managed to reach home and then narrated the ordeal to her sister-in-law. On the basis of the complaint filed by the girl's family, we have registered an FIR against the three accused under Section 376 (rape) of the Indian Penal Code and the POCSO Act," Maurya said.

" In 2012, a case was registered against the victim's brother for raping Amir's sister on the pretext of marrying her. The woman had later committed suicide and an FIR was registered against the victim's brother under Sections 306, 376, 506 and 120B of the Indian Penal Code then and one of the accused had served jail then, however, that case is still under trial in the sessions court," said a senior police officer.

Police said that the victim's family had also lodged an FIR against the accused earlier in a similar case, however, those claims were found to be false.

Ghaziabad Police said according to the victim, the accused attacked her on the head with the gun butt because of which she became semi-conscious. Later, they dumped her near her house and fled. She managed to reach home and narrated the ordeal to her sister-in-law

A 10-year-old girl was allegedly raped and murdered in Bihar’s Muzaffarpur district and her body was recovered on Sunday morning, the police said.

The girl, from Musahari village, was at a neighbour’s house on Saturday to watch television, and had left for home after 10pm. But she did not return till late night and her family raised an alarm.

The local people informed the police. “During our search operation, we recovered her body from a maize field under Musahari police station,” a police official told DNA. The fields are barely 500m from her home.

“Her clothes were found metres away from the body, along with some evidence of struggle and assault,” he said, adding, “It appears she was raped before being killed. Injury marks were found on her body, which has been sent for autopsy. The picture will be clearer once we get the reports.”

Sniffer dogs have been called to help the police with the investigation. No arrests have been made yet. The outraged locals demanded quick action against the perpetrators of the crime.

Incoming pro-life chair to keynote National Catholic Prayer Breakfast

Washington D.C., Apr 23, 2018 / 03:00 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- The keynote speaker at the 2018 National Catholic Prayer Breakfast will be Archbishop Joseph Naumann of Kansas City, incoming chairman of the US bishops’ pro-life committee.

The breakfast will be held May 24 in Washington, DC.

Naumann became the 11th bishop of the Archdiocese of Kansas City on January 15, 2005. He was appointed coadjutor archbishop of Kansas City in 2004.
 
Last November, he was elected chairman of the USCCB Committee on Pro-Life Activities, and will begin a three-year term in that position in November 2018. He is a member of the USCCB Administrative Committee, the USCCB Committee on Pro-Life Activities, the USCCB Religious Liberty Committee, the USCCB Communications Committee, and the bishops’ Subcommittee for the Promotion and Defense of Marriage.

The archbishop has drawn attention for bold statements on cultural issues. Naumann has spearheaded efforts to restrict abortion in Kansas, and is well-known for challenging Catholic politicians espousing pro-choice positions.

Last year, he cut ties with the Girl Scouts, saying that the organization was “no longer a compatible partner in helping us form young women with the virtues and values of the Gospel.” Parishes were instead encouraged to start troops of American Heritage Girls, an alternative scouting organization.

The National Catholic Prayer Breakfast began in 2004, “in response to St. John Paul II’s call for a new evangelization.” The event is officially nonpartisan and people of all faiths are invited to attend. Past keynote speakers include Cardinal Robert Sarah and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. Reported by CNA 9 hours ago.

The Earth Without Bats: a Nightmare Lurking in the Wings

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) April 24, 2018

At first consideration myth, cryptogamic soil, mycelium and Chiroptera (bats) appear to have little in common, that is unless you happen to be a reader of Saffron Woods. Without each of these aforementioned entities, humankind and the biosphere in which we co-exist might not have evolved to support the only known lifeforms in the vastness of this universe. Ours is an existence of inter-dependent keystone species and a threat to one is a threat to all. Make no mistake, bats are a keystone species on par with the humble bee and the environmental threats to both promise imminent risk to humanity.

Many are unaware that bats pollinate over 500 flowering plants, including species of mango, banana, cocoa, durian, guava, and agave (used to make tequila). Perhaps more importantly, insectivorous bats worldwide consume ~500,000 pounds of insects per day and several species of these arthropods carry and spread pathogens lethal to humans and livestock, the mosquito being especially noteworthy. Without bats life on Earth would be a nightmare for mammals as blood-feeding and plant-devastating insects reproduce unchecked, free to consume our crops and to feed on us; leading to widespread suffering and death due to disease, starvation and the geopolitical conflicts that would inevitably ensue due to the resulting scarcity of nutritional and medical resources.

Today, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) currently lists 24 bat species as Critically Endangered, meaning they face an imminent risk of extinction. Fifty-three others are Endangered, and 104 bat species are considered Vulnerable. Bats also are among the most under-studied of mammals. The IUCN lists 226 bat species as “Data Deficient”– there is simply too little information available to determine their conservation status. Of the 1,296 bat species that have been assessed by the IUCN almost a third are considered either threatened (vulnerable, endangered, or critically endangered) or data deficient, indicating the need for more conservation attention to these species.

“Why did I write the book ‘A Betrayal of Trust'? I became aware of the very real threat of the extinction of the entire bat family through two documentaries I had watched while working on one of my prior books. It occurred to me that bat preservation was extremely important to the health of the biosphere in concert with combating climate change so I decided to make this a plot driver for my overall story to help raise awareness of how critical bats are to humanity. After several months of working on the story, I read an online news feed reporting that Jeff Bezos the founder of Amazon.com was asking for suggestions as to what he should allocate his millions of philanthropic dollars toward and I decided to tie that concept into my story too. Bats need our help and the conservationists and scientists who want to help them need financial support from forward thinkers like Mr. Bezos. Additionally, I wanted to write about ‘The Procession’ and the coming ‘Age of Aquarius’. Now more than ever people are divided by corrupt, polarizing and manipulating forces as the ‘Age of Pisces’ emits its final death rattle. Human Beings need to look forward with hope, not fear and I felt I could perhaps assist with that transition to hopefulness through my writing. The New Age will bring with it understanding, compassion and healing for all of us and our beautiful planet.” -- Saffron Woods.

Saffron Woods is an inspirational storyteller and author of five novels who was motivated to return to writing when her youngest child prepared to leave home for college: empty nest syndrome was not the reason. Saffron has been taking stock of the state of our existence for some time now and she is deeply affected by how we as a world-society are failing in our stewardship of the environment and our fellow humankind. The impact that our actions and inactions will have on future generations could be catastrophic if we do not raise the collective awareness of our mutual neglect and change our ways of relating to all living things and our communal planet-home. There is no “Plan B” for Earth, at least for the foreseeable future.

In addition to the environment, Saffron’s works of fiction endeavor to illuminate some of the most important and controversial social topics of our time, including child abuse, domestic violence, human trafficking, mental illness and the abuses committed upon those so afflicted, PTSD, under-researched devastating illnesses, death with dignity, medically assisted suicide, the medicinal use of cannabis, and diverse dimensions of human sexuality including the needs and concerns of the LGBTQ communities.

“A Betrayal of Trust” narrates the story of wildlife biologist and chiropterologist Dr. Neffer Dawson. Hailing from the state of Oregon, Dr. Dawson suffers the most devastating day of her young life when virtually everything she believes defines her unravels at once. With no one to turn to at the moment, Neffer makes a random stop to collect herself only to have the gaping hole from her past unexpectedly filled, thus revealing a passageway to a future she never imagined possible for herself or her work. Overcoming her insecurities, traumas, and shame, Nefer gives the most important presentation of her bruised career setting into motion a series of events that may save our planet but at what unexpected expense? Come join Nefer on a wondrous and precarious journey that will take her from her home-state halfway around the world as she pursues her passion and love while trying valiantly to shed her horrific past. She hopes to avoid an even more horrifying future for herself, her family and for us all.

If you appreciate the writings of Gillian Flynn (Gone Girl) or Stieg Larsson (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), consider adding Saffron Woods to your reading short-list.

“This is the 4th book I have read by saffron. And again doesn’t disappoint. Although this was one of the harder ones to read I know it was harder to write this book. But I’m so glad she did. It brings to light some of the problems that peeps live with every day. I myself am a survivor of ptsd from sexual assault. This book touched on some of the struggles that people with ptsd can go through. I highly recommend this book as well as all her books.”
