Six held over India rape of Swiss woman says BBC news
Police say the suspects belong to a local tribe..
Police in India's Madhya Pradesh state have arrested six people in connection with the gang rape of a Swiss tourist. The men appeared before a local magistrate and were remanded in custody to return to court on Tuesday. The woman was attacked with her husband as they camped in woodland near a village in Datia district on Friday. Police spokesman Dilip Arya said the six men accused of Friday's attack in Madhya Pradesh were aged between 20 and 25, and belonged to a local tribe.
Twenty more people were being questioned in connection with the case, local police official SM Afzal told the BBC. The couple have been receiving medical treatment in Delhi and are helping police with their investigation. "They will continue to stay in India for the moment," a Swiss embassy statement said.
The assailants stole the couple's valuables, including 10,000 rupees ($185), a laptop computer and a mobile phone, before fleeing into the woods. Police said they had recovered the phone and the laptop from one of the suspects, Associated Press reports.
Meanwhile, India's political parties are taking part in previously scheduled meetings to discuss harsher punishment for rapists, including the death penalty. They will also consider lowering the age of consent for sex to 16. Critics say the bill is being watered down to ensure its passage and that more needs to be done to change attitudes towards women, the BBC's Andrew North in Delhi reports. Earlier, the chief minister of Madhya Pradesh said the Swiss couple were partly to blame - because they had not told the authorities where they were going.
Foreign tourist arrivals have risen steadily in India - nearly 20 million visited in 2011, compared with 14.4 million in 2009.
Tourism in India is a large industry. The World Travel and Tourism Council calculated that tourism generated $121 billion or 6.4% of the nation's GDP in 2011. It was responsible for 39,3 million jobs, 7.9% of its total employment. The GDP of the tourism sector has expanded 229% between 1990 and 2011.........
In the year 2011, there were nearly 6.29 million foreign tourist arrivals in India, up by over 8% from the year 2010 when 5.78 million foreign tourists arrived in India. Domestic tourist visits to all states and Union Territories numbered 747.70 million. The majority of foreign tourists come from the United States (16%) and the United Kingdom (12,6%). In 2011 Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Delhi were the most popular states for foreign tourists. Domestic tourists visited the states Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu most frequently.[4] Chennai, Delhi, Mumbai and Agra have been the four most visited cities of India by foreign tourists during the year 2011. Worldwide, Chennai is ranked 41 by the number of foreign tourists, while Delhi is ranked at 50, Mumbai at 57 and Agra at 65.[5]
The Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report 2011 ranked the price competitiveness of India's tourism sector 28th out of 139 countries. It mentions that India has quite good air transport (ranked 39th), particularly given the country’s stage of development, and reasonable ground transport infrastructure (ranked 43rd). Some other aspects of its tourism infrastructure remain somewhat underdeveloped however. The nation has very few hotel rooms per capita by international comparison and low ATM penetration. The Indian government has identified a shortage of 150,000 hotel rooms, with most of the undersupply in the budget sector.[6]
