Too Good to Be True - Or Is It?

Have you ever came across an awesome money making deal, but you felt skeptical? And to reassure your skepticism someone said, "Remember, if it's too good to be true it probably is!" Your guards were up, and rightfully so. Many con artists and swindlers have worked their butts off for many years to make that very famous phrase hold its' wisdom. Now we are almost programmed to stay away or be skeptical of anything that doesn't blend in with what the rest of the world is used to. But have you ever considered that you MAY be missing an opportunity anyway? And just because it sounds too good to be true, doesn't necessarily mean that is? And what if the big players in our society are now taking advantage of us by presenting us bad deals that we consider the norm?

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
  • 17-year-old girl commits suicide after alleging she was gang raped
  • In her suicide note, she named her alleged attackers who have since been arrested
  • Her death follows furious protests over another gang rape on a bus in New Delhi
  • Protesters are demanding more government action after a sharp rise in cases

New Delhi (CNN) -- Indian police have arrested three suspects named in a suicide note left by a teenager who claimed she had been gang raped, as anger in the country grows over the rising number of violent crimes committed against women.

The 17-year-old girl died Wednesday after ingesting poison, according to Paramjit Singh Gill, the inspector-general of police in the Patiala district of Punjab in the country's north.

In her suicide note, the girl blamed her alleged rapists for causing her death. Three of the suspects, including a female accomplice, have since been arrested, Gill said.

The unnamed girl claimed she was gang raped during the Hindu festival of Diwali on November 13. However, a formal case wasn't registered by police until 14 days later.

Two police officers involved in the case have been fired and another has been suspended for their handling of the rape complaint. Gill said an investigation was underway into allegations made by the girl's family that the officers pressured her to withdraw her complaint.

Outrage over suspected India gang rape

The teenager's death comes after days of mass protests over the gang rape of a 23-year-old woman on a bus in New Delhi on December 16.

The attackers were alleged to have assaulted the woman and her male companion, robbing them of their belongings before dumping them at the side of a road, according to a police statement. Six suspects are now under arrest, including the bus driver and a minor.

The woman's male companion has since been discharged from hospital, but the violent sexual assault left the woman near death and in need of intensive care.

She was flown to Singapore for treatment on Thursday where doctors described her condition Friday as "extremely critical."

"Our medical team's investigations upon her arrival at the hospital yesterday showed that in addition to her prior cardiac arrest, she also had infection of her lungs and abdomen, as well as significant brain injury. The patient is currently struggling against the odds, and fighting for her life," said Kelvin Loh, the chief executive officer of Mount Elizabeth Hospital.

Authorities haven't released the name of the rape victim, but protesters are calling her "Damini," which means "lightning" in Hindi. "Damini" is also a 1993 Bollywood film whose lead female character fights for a housemaid, a victim of a sexual assault.

The brutal attack triggered a wave of protests that started in the Raisina Hills area of New Delhi on Saturday, and spread to other areas of the city. Demonstrators marched through the streets waving signs that read, "Hang them till death," and "Stop this shame."

Police aimed water cannon at the crowd, after some demonstrators tried to break through the security barriers erected around the government district, parliament building and presidential palace. Protesters claimed they were injured in clashes, and returned to the streets on Sunday shouting anti-government slogans.

More demonstrations were held on Thursday, when elderly and middle-aged women joined younger students to demand greater action and protection. They say the government is not doing enough to address the alarming incidence of rape in India.

Reported rape cases have surged more than tenfold over the past 40 years -- from 2,487 in 1971 to 24,206 in 2011, according to official figures. New Delhi alone reported 572 rapes last year and more than 600 in 2012.

The government announced plans Thursday to "name and shame" convicted rapists by posting their names, images and addresses on official websites, according to the Times of India.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh described the safety of women as his government's "highest concern" in a meeting with senior government officials.

"Women and girls represent half the population and our society has not been fair to this half. Their socio-economic status is improving, but gaps persist," he said in speech Thursday.

"The emergence of women in public spaces, which is an absolutely essential part of social emancipation, is accompanied by growing threats to their safety and security," Singh said.

He reiterated that the December 16 bus rape case would be dealt with in a speedy manner.

"There can be no meaningful development without the active participation of half the population and this participation simply cannot take place if their security and safety are not assured," Singh said.

Seema Sirohi, Indian Council on Global Relations, told CNN that most women in India had their own stories of sexual harassment and abuse.

"To be a woman in India is not an easy proposition. Every woman has experienced some kind of abuse on public transportation, lewd remarks on the street. No matter how conservatively you are dressed, you are still open season for the men," she said.

"There are a lot of reasons why this happens, but the patriarchal system is one, a lack of policing is another, and general treatment of women which is not equal to men, even though it may be so under the law," Sirohi added.

The Indian Cabinet plans to set up a commission to look into the rape and suggest measures to improve women's safety. The commission has three months to submit its report to the government.

BAE Systems denies Filton hangar demolition rumours

Aviation firm BAE Systems has moved to quash rumours that it is planning to demolish an historic piece of Bristol's aviation history.
Rumours started on Christmas Eve that the owner of Filton Airfield was planning to demolish the famous Brabazon Hangar over the festive season.
But the firm, which has just signed a £120 million deal to sell the  airfield to property developers, has confirmed it is looking to find a new use for the huge structure.
Rumours started circulating early on Christmas Eve and Bristol Mayor George Ferguson got in touch with English Heritage after he was contacted by worried campaigners in a bid to halt the demolition.
But BAE Systems, who has been heavily criticised for the closure of the airfield and the sale to property developer Bridgehouse Capital moved quickly to quash the rumours.
A spokesman for the company revealed that the firm is actually trying to find a new tenant for the 35,000 square metre building.
The spokesman added: "BAE Systems has been actively seeking new occupiers for the Brabazon Hangar for over 18 months and that activity is ongoing.
"Given the current marketing activity to find someone to occupy the hangar and bring the building back into economic use, there are no plans to demolish the Brabazon Hangar after Christmas."
Mr Ferguson said: "This is good news because the hangar really is a part of Bristol's long and illustrious history. We had been in touch with English Heritage but it appears there was little we could have done.
"There have been two applications in the past to list the building but they have been turned down on both occasions."
The huge  hangar was built in the late 1940s to accommodate and at the time, the hangar doors and the railway level crossing for the aircraft were the largest in the world.
They were later used by designers and engineers working on the development of Concorde - the most famous aircraft to be built in Bristol.
As reported in The Post the airfield closed to flights for the final time on Friday, December 21, after more than 100 years of operation.
A campaign by the Save Filton Airfield group has been launched to try and save the airfield but the proposed  sale of the land appears to have scuppered any chance of saving the land from developers.
Barry Cash, from the campaign group, said: " BAE won the lottery when they took over the airfield. They bought it for a nominal amount and are looking to sell it to property firms for more than £100 million.
"Right throughout this whole process BAE have stuck to the line that the airfield is not economically viable, they made their mind up right at the start of the process and refused to look at any alternative solutions."
