If resorting to gang rape on a woman was not an enough heinous crime, three young men have crossed all the limits of humanity by live streaming it on the most popular social networking site, Facebook.
Reportedly, three men in Sweden capital Stockholm gang raped a woman and broadcast the video in a closed facebook group having over 60,000 members.
Police were tipped off by a woman who had seen the video. Speaking to a local tabloid, she said that she had seen one of the men tearing off the woman’s clothes and lie on top of her while she was screaming for help. ‘One of the men was holding a gun,’ she added.
Acting quickly on the lead, police arrested the three culprits and confirmed that they too had seen the video. All the three perpetrators were aged between 18 and 25. Police said that several thousand people have watched the live telecast and they have also urged the users as well as Facebook to delete the complete footage.
Facebook started live-streaming feature a year ago in order to let people share information and other events with a wider audience. However, some miscreants with criminal mind are using the technology to popularize crime and hatred in the society.
