A child of no consequence

Police officers escort the man accused of raping and torturing the little girl
This tiny human being, this little girl, this small daughter is just one story, plucked out from thousands of similar stories. This beautiful, innocent girl, suffered chronic internal injuries, inflicted by the unbelievable callousness of her rapist who left her for dead. Her parents abandoned her at the hospital, because of the shame.  Human rights were meaningless and non-existent to this poor, defenceless child.

But...If she had been born a child of consequence. If she had been the daughter of a President, a Prime-minister, Royalty, the Elite or even a Celebrity. It would have been a 'Big Deal'. It would have been a big deal to the mass media, the judiciaries, to society and to the world. The perpetrator would have been found and brought to justice, swiftly and dealt with severely. There would have been public outcry and an outpouring of sympathy. There would maybe, be a change of law. And if she had died, memorial and maybe a school or children's hospital named after her. The worlds media would run constant stories, including the arrest and trial of the rapist. There would be endless internet discussions and documentaries made. This story would reverberate all around this empathetic planet for many years after.
But...This little girl was not a child of consequence. Her tiny, damaged body will be forgotten...just like her story, and the thousands of other stories like hers.
What kind of world do we live in, when only the rapes and deaths of children of consequence are addressed in such worldly regard and the poor and insignificant children are dismissed like yesterdays newspaper.
She is not just one of 'India's daughters' She is one of the Worlds daughters...She is one of my daughters...and she is one of yours.
 

This  woman is one of life's real heroes, in my opinion she deserves a nobel prize for helping India's sex-trafficked children. She has seen  first hand..the destruction of children's raped bodies...please check out her website and help her.
