India gang rape: Delhi to appoint more policewomen
India has said more women police will be recruited soon in the capital, Delhi, after a national outcry over the gang rape of a young woman last month.
Five men have been charged with raping and murdering the 23-year-old who died of her injuries at the weekend.
The men will be tried in a fast-track court, where they could be handed the death penalty. A sixth suspect is likely to be tried in a juvenile court.
