Story Unfolds: India rape capital of the world?

Rape in India is the fourth most common crime against women in India.
According to the National Crime Records Bureau 2013 annual report, 24,923 rape cases were reported across India in 2012.
Out of these, 24,470 were committed by relative or neighbor; in other words, the victim knew the alleged rapist in 98 per cent of the cases.
According to 2012 statistics, New Delhi has the highest number of rape-reports among Indian cities, while Jabalpur has the per capita incidence of reported rapes.
Several rape cases in India received widespread media attention and triggered protests since 2012.
This led the Government of India to reform its penal code for crimes of rape and sexual assault.
