9 Disturbing Images Of A Clash Between Policewomen And Protesters
Paramedic students in Kashmir staged a sit-in today to protest their grades. So policewomen beat them with batons (warning: some images are graphic).
The students, all female, wanted their exams re-graded after 5,000 of 7,000 students failed.
They held a sit-in outside the health department office in the city of Srinagar.
Policewomen used batons to break up the protest. India has established a number of all-female police stations and squads that deal with issues from dowry-related violence to female drunk drivers.

Policewomen in Srinagar were also called in to arrest protesters from the group Daughters of the Muslim Faith last week, when they protested against the film “Innocence of Muslims.”
