The gangrape of a 30-year-old American woman in a Delhi five-star hotel in April 2016–revealed when she returned to India and spoke up on December 6, 2016–has returned the spotlight onto Delhi’s notorious reputation as a city being unsafe for women.
The American said she was raped by her tour guide, two hotel staffers and two other men.
In 2015, 365 crimes against foreigners in India were registered, of which 147 (40%) were in Delhi, followed by Maharashtra (53) and Uttar Pradesh (33), according to National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) data.
Of these 365 crimes, 271 were against tourists and the rest against foreigners resident in India. The number of crimes, however, was 25% lesser than the 486 registered in 2014.
