A seven-year-old girl is fighting for her life after being raped with a water pipe.

It’s the latest incident in a string of shocking attacks in India that have sparked outrage.

Six men raped a woman on a bus she was taking with her male companion while beating her with an iron rod. She later died of her injuries.

In May, the body of an 8-year-old Muslim girl was found after she had been gang raped and strangled.

Three police officers and a former government official were among the eight Hindu men arrested.

That same month, police announced they had arrested a primary suspect in the gang rape and killing of a 16-year-old girl in the northeast of the country.

The man arrested was one of 20 accused in the attack.

Weeks later a man in the same state raped a 17-year-old in her relative’s home before setting her on fire.
