The doctors have said 23-year-old female student, who was gang raped in a moving bus by six persons on Sunday in Indian capital, is brave and fighting it out but termed her condition as critical.<\/h1>\n

New Delhi\/Dec 20\/Nationalturk – The doctors attending on 23-year-old female student, who was gang raped in a moving bus in New Delhi (Indian capital) and is undergoing treatment in Delhi\u2019s Safdarjung hospital, said she was a very brave girl but said her condition is still critical.<\/p>\n

“She is a very brave girl and fighting it out. She is withstanding all treatment since the day of assault,\u201d said Dr Mishra of AIIMS Trauma Centre.<\/p>\n

He is working on the trauma management plan for the victim with doctors of Safdarjung hospital – where the gang rape victim is undergoing treatment.<\/p>\n

The doctors attending on her said her kidneys, lungs, heart are doing well. \u201cThere are no muscular or lower limb injuries. Our main concern is that the victim should come out of the trauma\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe victim was conscious and alert, and was communicating through gestures. She had on Wednesday given a written statement to police explaining what happened to her and her friend on the fateful night,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n

However, the doctors said her condition is still very critical. \u201cAlthough all the vital parameters of the victim were within acceptable limits but infection is one of the expected complications as the injuries are gangrenous and very infectious in nature. Victim has always been on ventilator and we have not made an attempt to take her off it\u201d.<\/p>\n

Dr Sunil Jain of Safdarjung hospital said the injuries sustained the gang rape victim are extremely rare in his career. \u201cI have not seen such a complicate case in my career so far\u201d.<\/p>\n

The doctors said two surgeries have been performed on the girl. \u201cWe had to remove her gangrenous small intestine. She has lost most of her intestine.\u201d<\/p>\n

They said her platelet count, which has fallen considerably, is a major cause of concern for them. \u201cShe still continues to be critical\u201d.<\/p>\n

The 23-year old girl, who is a medical student, was gang-raped in a moving bus in Delhi on Sunday evening by six persons including driver of the bus. She and her male friend were later beaten with iron rods and thrown out of the bus in a semi-naked condition.<\/p>\n

Four people including driver of the bus have been arrested. Two other accused are absconding and police have launched a massive manhunt to track them down and bring them to justice. The accused have been identified as Ram Singh (driver of the vehicle), his brother Mukesh, Vinay Sharma, an assistant gym instructor, and Pawan Gupta, a fruit seller.<\/p>\n

This should not happen to any girl: Victim\u2019s father<\/h2>\n

The Indian parliament\u2019s Speaker Meira Kumar told a TV channel NDTV that she met the parents of the victim girl in hospital. \u201cThey told me that they are very poor, and often eat salt and bread because they cannot afford much else.\u00a0 They told me they sold a small field they owned to pay for their daughter’s dream of becoming a doctor,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Kumar further said victim\u2019s father told her that they want to make sure that this doesn’t happen to any other girl.”<\/p>\n

\u201c\u00a0<\/em>I don’t have words to describe how much I admire them for the inner strength that they have,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

People demand swift trial, harsh punishment<\/h3>\n

The gang-rape and torture of a 23-year-old girl has shocked people in India. People of different sections of society have taken out rallies and marches in different parts of India \u00a0including Delhi to demand swift trial in the case. Majority of people in India are demanding harsh punishment to the rapists so that it can prove deterrent and stop further crimes against women.<\/p>\n

People have also demanded more police patrolling on the streets during evening hours. Some people have demanded that the rapists be publicly hanged so that such incidents don\u2019t recur in future.<\/p>\n
