Conscience is dead: Kathua minor’s name trending on porn site across India, Pakistan, Bangladesh

People across the subcontinent are searching for the rape video of the minor girl in Kathua

It has been more than three months since the brutalised body of an 8-year-old girl, from the nomadic muslim community of Bakkerwals, was found in Rasana area of Jammu’s Kathua region. Amidst horrifying allegations and much silence for over three months, voices started to come in support of the victim after the chargesheet filed by the Crime Branch detailed the horror the minor girl went through.

The outrage compounded by the support of right wing Hindu parties that came out rallying for the rapists, against whom the police has presented scientific, and forensic evidence.

But beyond the outrage, the top searches on porn websites, in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh is the name of the minor Kathua victim. It seems, people are searching for the rape video.

In Pakistan too, one of the top trending searches, was the minor’s name.

Bangladesh is also searching for the same.

The trending search proves the large voyeuristic and sadistic consumer base for miseries of other people in the subcontinent, which according to a recent study are among the most “prolific consumers” of internet pornography, accounting for 40% of the website’s 14.2 billion visits.
