                                                               Muslim massacre






















                   -The violence did not escalate
                   into a massacre by itself. It
                   has been established that there
                   was preparation, organization
                   and pre-planned targeting.
                   -Among the women in the survivors camps, there are women who had been raped,
                   gang raped, mass raped, paraded naked, violated with a variety of objects, assault-
                   ed and subjected to the most repulsive acts of sexual violation. Many of the raped
                   women were subsequently burned alive.

                   -The effect on these women is psychological, physical and financial. There is no ev-
                   idence whatsoever to suggest that the state helped them in any of these three areas.
                   -Certain media organizations, broadcasting in the native language of Gujarat,
                   played a dangerous and frankly criminal role in inciting the public to partake in
