Hathras rape and forceful cremation case
On 14 September 2020, a 19-year-old Dalit woman was allegedly gang-raped in Hathras district, Uttar Pradesh, India, by four upper caste men. She died two weeks later in a Delhi hospital. I uncovered how the state police and administration violated the human rights of the victim and her family by forcefully cremating the body at midnight, against the family's will. I recorded the crime done by the police and questioned them for it. After my story, the court took cognisance and filed a case against the police personnel and administration.
