and murder of a 23-year-old paramedical student, the rape and murder of three minor girls, who were siblings in Bhandara,

has shocked the nation.

The single mother of the girls, a domestic help is asking the government to hang the culprits.

"I think the men who did this should be found at the earliest and hanged in public," the mother told news channels.

The mourning woman has blamed the police for the death of her daughters. "The first day when we filed the complaint, the police didn't act on it. Had they looked for the girls, my girls would have been found. This is nothing but negligence," she said.

The poor and distraught mother has rejected the financial help of Rs 10 lakh offered by the Maharashtra government.

The three minor sisters, aged 11, 8, and 6 were said to be lured with food by the culprits. The three girls went missing on February 14 from their village near Lakhni town in Bandara district, 65 kilometres from Nagpur.
After remaining missing for two days, the bodies of the girls were found dumped in a well near the village. Preliminary post-mortem report has confirmed that the girls were raped before being murdered.

However, no arrests have been made yet. The police started investigating the case after locals protested against police apathy. Police initially termed the death of the girls as an accident. Sources say police have arrested three suspects.
"State Home Minister RR Patil is likely to visit the mother of the deceased girls on Thursday," said a police official.
