New Delhi, Jan 6: There's no dearth of good Samaritans in the city, but those who wish to do good often weigh the possibility of police harassment or the chance that by aiding a stranger, one might be helping a criminal.
IANS spoke with a cross-section of people in the wake of allegations made by the friend of the Dec 16 gang-rape victim that no one came to their rescue the night of the incident, after they were dumped on the roadside. The woman had been brutally raped, while her 28-year-old software engineer friend was assaulted.
Jayant Verma, 43, says he will never forget what happened as he tried to succour an "accident victim" the night of Dec 15.
Verma says he was travelling through Ghitorni road that connects Delhi to suburb Gurgaon around midnight. He saw what appeared to be an accident site -- a couple lay on the roadside, their scooter smashed against a tree.
