This really a shocking story from the Indian state OF Uttarpradesh,a women beheaded the attacker , who tried to rape her in grass field.The daring act of this women is going to set example for those women who even dont dare to report the case to police.

The 35-year-old said she had been working in her field cutting grass when the man tried to attack her. She hit back using her sickle.
She told the BBC she had no regrets. The man had reportedly been harassing and stalking her for some time.
"He tried to rape me and I hit back with the grass-cutting weapon to save my honour," she told Ramdutt Tripathi of the BBC Hindi service.
She says she went to the police station in her blood-soaked clothes after the incident, but denied newspaper reports that she carried the head with her.
Ram Bharose, police chief of Lakhimpur Khiri district some 125 miles (200km) south of the state capital Lucknow, said they were investigating the incident.
He said the woman had a legal right to defend herself against rape and sexual attacks.

Amitjha, I like this story. It's good stuff.

Thanks Anamika,

this is really a very intresting episode in the way of women empowerment, although bit violence.

Thanks Rene,

this is really a nice development on the part of justice on the spot,there is no other way for these rural women other than .........punishing the culprit.
