New Delhi: Following is the timeline of how Damini, the braveheart fought against death till the end:
December 16, 2012: Damini (name changed), a paramedic student, watches a movie with her friend in Delhi's Saket mall and heads home around 9 pm. She and her friend reach Munirka in an auto, from where they boarded an illegal chartered bus to reach home.
Inside the bus, six drunk men, including the driver, first taunt her and then use an iron rod to beat her friend, who tries to defend her, unconscious. They then rape and torture the young woman for over 40 minutes. One of the rapists inserts an iron rod into her private parts, irretrievably damaging her intestines.
In an attempt to hide their crime they strip the woman and her friend and throw them, naked and unconscious, out of the bus near Mahipalpur.
They are discovered by pedestrians, police was called in and the two were taken to Safdarjung Hospital.
