Police in the Indian city of New Delhi are probing the rape of a 7-year-old girl, a case that has sparked angry protests

No arrests have been made in the act, which occurred in the municipal school where the girl studied. Sexual assault on females is a hot-button issue in India. The country is still reeling from the horrific actions of five men and a juvenile who gang-raped and murdered a 23-year-old woman in New Delhi in December 2012.
