Update: 2016-05-04 23:57 GMT
The National Human Rights Commission has issued notice to the government of Kerala over the gruesome rape and murder of a Dalit law student in Ernakulam. The Commission has taken suo motu cognisance of media reports about yet another Nirbhaya-like rape and murder of a Dalit law student whose body was found by her mother on April 29 evening, in Ernakulam. “The crime is so spine-chilling and gruesome that words fall short and expressing anguish and shock appear meaningless and mere ritualistic. “It is a matter of utmost concern that women’s security is facing grave threat in spite of several measures,” the Commission said.
