    Maid’s family ‘evacuated’ to US: Bharara

    A cavity search is still technically rape and by design the police procedure is designed to humiliate the person into submission. The problem here is that an Indian consular staff was subjected to it and it will be seen as a gesture designed to humiliate the country. This incident could have...
