First of all the premise itself is incorrect. You can not compare with India in an attempt to shy away. India as you have already emphasized enough - A poor and developing country (some members even have doubts in this regard).
Is anyone claiming that India is safer than Australia - Hell no. But what you dont realise is - This argument goes against your POV. It is being claimed that the incidents against Indians are urban crimes only, but since you have a lower crime rate and a lower population - this happening to Indians in Australia should be even more rare and alarming.
Specially alarming is how Indians are more prone to these crimes than any other community. India would be termed racist if instances of crime against foreigners was higher than that on natives - it ain't so... Keep Diggin.
As far as Mr. Stains and his Family, their case received ample highlighting and sympathy (and rightly so). Not a single member would defend his or his families murder, like some people are for Indians. It was recognized for what it was - A Hate Crime. The perpetrator was found and life imprisonment handed out to him. And yes he was a "Hindu Extremist" and was not spared for being one.

To get the facts straight - he died of sleeping pills overdose.Well Nemesis to answer with the following
Michael Osborne - killed in Patna
Graham Staines and his two sons were burnt to death while sleeping in their car
That makes 4 persons already, need we go further. Oh, and by the way. Mr Staines and his wife served as missionaries, serving lepers for 34 years in India.
