Some breaking news out of india where anger is boiling over in the treastreets, and a young wo is fighting for her life in the hospital. There have been protests. The protestors are furious after the young woman was beaten and gang raped on a bus in new delhi last weekend. A journalist has been kill pendergraph ed in a separate protest today. First of all, what can you tell us about the journalists death today . Reporter the death of this protestor is concerned, it all started from last sunday. There was a 23yearold victim who was gang raped on a moving bus, and there have been protests all over new delhi after that and protests all over the country as well. In this protest it wasnt clear what india gave in the center of the new delhi. Its not far from the Indian Parliament so its a high security area, and the police have been giving warnings to people all day. Finally in the evening they approached the crowds and they started to hit them with batons, they targeted them with Water Cannons asking them it to get out of the streets. Thats the central part that was taken over by the police right now. And thats what youre seeing now. Do you see the protesters . Are they running away or injured being clubbed by authorities there . Reporter no. As far as the protestors are concerned thash concern concerned, theyre back to the location. The police arent doing anything because they faced a lot of flax for the attack already. During the day they got violent. They were throwing things at the police personnel, they were throwing stones, they were throwing bottles and shoes at the place. This is a very high security zone, so considering that tomorrow is monday and would be very high traffic here, it is a major arterial road, so the police want to get it back on track. There were a lot of women in the area. They would probably get very highly criticized in the days to come. What about this young woman attack attacked . Do you know anything about her condition . Reporter as far as this woman is concerned, there are a number of women in this area who were injured. Theyve been taken to nearby hospitals, but no one has been severely injurie injured. Theyre focusing on getting things back to normal up. Im talking about the woman aattacked on the bus originally. Do you know anything about her condition . Shes still suffering and critical. Shes been on a ventilator for one week, but her condition is improving say doctors. It will take several months for her to get completely back to normal, because she suffered very severe injuries to her intestines, a portion has been removed. Doctors say it will take several months to recover fully. I know the protesters called this woman damini, which means lightning is hindi. Has she become a symbol in india . Reporter as far as the name of the protestor is concerned, we refrain from taking the names of victims. What has happened is that shes really different people she interacted with, they associated with her at some point. What happens is every woman faces some sort of harassment in the capital on a daily basis. Crimes against women have been on the rise, and this was a really brutal case. In fact, if you speak to Police Officers here and doctors who are treating that 22yearold girl were talking about, they tell you that this is probably the worst case theyve seen in the last seven to eight years. Thats what really brought people on the streets. Weve seen rapes before. Weve seen murders before, but never has never have people really come to important locations in the capital and protested in this manner. It was the shear brutality of this case that bout people together. Of course. Its hard to imagine a young woman being gang raped on a moving bus and nobody being able to prevent that. What about arrests in this case . Have these men been arrested . Reporter all the accused in the case have been arrested. There were six of them. One was a bus driver and the other were their associates. They were arrested in two to three days, but really the focus wasnt the investigation. The profile of these people wasnt very great. They were ordinary vegetable vendors and fruit sellers, very ordinary people. The police already had a lot of information about them. Id like to point out a very key role was played by the victims male friend. He was traveling with her on that bus. He tried to resist when these men indulged this it this, and he was really beaten up badly by them. Thats when the others really took advantage of the situation. So the male friend has really helped the police. Hes been giving all the statements. He gave them the clues about the bus, the number of the bus, what was inscribed. The victim gave a detailed statement about the incident to the police. That is something very brave, considering someone is so badly battered and so badly injured. She may be afraid to give a statement to the police. Thats a good thing. Doctors tell us she is walking slightly and her condition is improving. Thank you so much for your reporting and that information from delhi there. Appreciate that. Egypts Muslim Brotherhood party says voters approved a referendum on a new constitution for the country.

He proposed a vote on the plan to allow taxes to go up on millionaires, but republicans had to pull it off the table after admitting they cant get it passed. Foorn illustration check the latest poll, and thats what we have Political EditorPaul Stein Hauser doing . Americans are worried about the tax increases and spending cuts that will kick in at the end of the year. 710 questioned in our cnn orc National Poll say there would be major problems or a crisis in the country if that happens. Part of what voters were looking for is some compromise up here. Thats what folks want. And our poll indicates more americans want the republicans rather than the democrats to compromise more to reach bipartisan solutions. The Democratcontrolled Senate and white house have no plan and have offered no plan all year to deal with these looming cuts. But the public doesnt seem to aagree, and more people would blame republicans in Congress Rather than the president if no deal is reached. One reason why . More people see the views and policies of the gop rather than the Democratic Party has too extreme. That wasnt the case two years ago. If theres any good news in the poll for the republicans, its this. A small majority say its good for the country that the gop controls the house, which suggests the public doesnt want the democrats controlling everything here in washington.
