After 10 Days, Surat Police Seek Help To Identify Raped, Murdered Child

After no one came forward for 10 days to claim the body of a child raped and murdered in Gujarat's Surat, the city police issued an appeal on social media, asking for help in identifying her. The murder of the girl, who the police said was held captive and tortured, is the latest in a string of cases that sparked protests across the country. As the outrage grew and people in nearly a dozen cities hit the streets yesterday, the case was transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation this morning.
