Bomb planted near rape suspect's home | Kuwait Times

NEW DELHI: Indian police arrested a man yesterday as he tried to plant a crude bomb near the home of one of the suspects in the New Delhi gang-rape case as a backlash against widespread sex crimes gathered steam. As protests against harassment and violence against women continued, a chart-topping Indian rapper known for his sexually explicit lyrics also became embroiled in a growing campaign against sexism and misogyny in Indian society.

Yo Yo Honey Singh, whose hits include ?My home my village?, saw his New Year?s Eve concert in New Delhi cancelled following an online campaign which highlighted lyrics allegedly inciting abuse of women. His 2007 track ?Prostitute? refers to him having violent sex with a woman after he forces her to ?dance naked? and includes the line: ?You will scream and run but where can you go? I will take your life?.

The furore over the rap star comes as the country comes to terms with the December 16 gang-rape in which a 23- year-old medical student was repeatedly assaulted and violated with an iron bar while being driven around in a bus for 40 minutes. She died from internal injuries in a Singapore hospital at the weekend and her ashes were immersed Tuesday in the holy Ganges river by her family near their native village in northern Uttar Pradesh state.

The unnamed girl, whose parents had sold land to fund her studies, had been out to the cinema with her boyfriend when she was lured onto the bus by a gang of reportedly drunk joyriders. Sexual violence and gang-rapes are commonplace in India, but the case has brought simmering anger ? particularly among young urban women ? to the boil and led to protests in the capital and calls for the death penalty for rapists. Police said they had arrested a 37-year-old man yesterday in the narrow by-lanes of a slum in southwest Delhi after he allegedly tried to plant a crude bomb near the house of one of six suspects detained by police for the Delhi rape. The low-grade device was filled with explosives usually used in firecrackers, a police official told AFP.

Protests in India, which continued on Monday and on New Year?s Eve, have also spilled to other parts of the world with people taking to the streets in Hong Kong, Islamabad, London and Kathmandu. Yesterday, about 30 women?s rights activists protested outside the Indian consulate in Hong Kong, urging authorities to enact tougher laws to punish sex crimes.

The government, which has faced a wave of anger, has set up a panel headed by a former chief justice to recommend changes to the criminal law dealing with sexual crimes. The panel, which was set up last week, had already received more than 17,000 suggestions until Monday, The Indian Express newspaper reported. Also yesterday, the Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde said the six suspects for the gang-rape risked the death penalty if found guilty and the case against them appeared very strong. ?We have a solid case with very good evidence? a magistrate has recorded the victim?s dying declaration and we have a prime witness, the girl?s friend, who has identified the rapists,? Shinde told The Economic Times newspaper.

The victim?s boyfriend, whom friends said she intended to marry, tried to prevent the rape and is likely to give crucial evidence during what is expected to be a fast-tracked trial. ? AFP

ADA: Have employee suggest accommodations ? Business ...

Some employees think that merely declaring they have a disability means it?s up to the employer to figure out an accommodation. That?s not entirely true. The ADA accommodations process is an interactive one, requiring input from both employee and employer.

Recent case: Kathy worked for UPS for many years as a delivery driver. Then she injured her shoulder and was out for about two years on various medical leaves and workers? compensation. Eventually, she told UPS she was ready to return to work, but with restrictions.

UPS asked for medical information on her restrictions and got several conflicting reports. One showed her ready to return with a 40-pound lifting restriction. Another said she was unable to work as a delivery driver at all, but could work a sedentary job instead.

After reviewing its job descriptions (which clearly stated that drivers had to lift packages weighing up to 70 pounds on their own) and looking for other openings, it told Kathy she would not be rehired.

Kathy sued, arguing that UPS had refused to engage in the interactive ADA accommodations process and hadn?t suggested any accommodations.

The court tossed out her case. It said Kathy was also obligated to engage in the process, by suggesting potential accommodations. She hadn?t done so, while UPS had at least considered options by asking for medical information and reviewing it before rejecting her request. (Wright v. United Parcel Service, No. 11-1563, CD CA, 2012)

Final note: Be sure to track the entire accommodations process, from the moment an applicant or employee notifies you of a disability to the point when she?s either accommodated or you conclude no accommodations are possible.

If you accommodate her, check back to see if the accommodation is working.

Break Out the Shovels and Ice-Melt - The Massachusetts Real ...

The first major winter storm in Massachusetts yesterday brought lots of questions on Massachusetts snow and ice removal law.

I am a homeowner and rental property owner. Am I legally required to clear snow and ice after a storm?

The law now in Massachusetts is that?all Massachusetts property owners and landlords are legally responsible for the removal of snow and ice from their property.?In 2010, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court overruled 125 years of legal precedent which protected property owners from ?natural accumulations of ice and snow,? and announced this new rule. My prior post on the case can be read here. The rule applies across the board, to homeowners, landlords, commercial business owners, restaurants, everyone.

I am a landlord. How long do I have to shovel snow and ice on my rental property?

There is no clear cut answer to this question, and juries and courts will ultimately decide what is reasonable. The City of Boston?s policy is to give businesses 3 hours to clean snow, and 6 hours to residents. My advice is to shovel and treat snow and ice early and often. Even a thin coating of black ice can cause someone to slip and fall and seriously hurt themselves. (Admit it if you?ve dumped on your rear end like I have!). If you are an out-of-town landlord, you must hire someone to shovel your snow.

My lease states that the tenant is responsible for snow shoveling. Will that protect me from liability?

Probably not. A person who is injured due to untreated snow or ice will likely sue both the property owner and the tenant. The property owner must ultimately ensure that the property is safe for visitors. The landlord may bring a claim for contribution/indemnification against the tenant.

I live in Boston, and I heard I have to shovel the public sidewalk in front of my house after a storm. Is that true?

Yes. On top of their added responsibilities, property owners in several Massachusetts communities, including Boston, Newton, Lynn, and Worcester, are required by local ordinances to clear municipal sidewalks in front of their residences or businesses. The City of Boston mandates clean sidewalks within 6 hours of a storm; Worcester is 12 hours.

Will my homeowner?s or CGL insurance policy cover any injuries from slip and fall on snow/ice?

Yes, usually. The standard Massachusetts homeowners insurance policy and commercial general liability insurance policy (CGL) will have liability coverage for slip and falls on property. Make sure you have ample liability coverage of at least $500,000 to 1 Million. (You can never have enough insurance!). As with any insurance question, it?s best to contact your personal insurance agent.

Obama: Troops aiding African diplomat evacuation

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama says 50 U.S. troops have deployed to the African country of Chad to help evacuate U.S. citizens and embassy personnel from the neighboring Central African Republic's capital of Bangui in the face of rebel advances toward the city.

Obama informed congressional leaders of Thursday's deployment in a letter Saturday citing a "deteriorating security situation" in the Central African Republic.

The evacuation of the U.S. diplomats comes in the wake of criticism of the Obama administration's handling of diplomatic security at its consulate in Benghazi, Libya. The ambassador and three other Americans were killed in a Sept. 11 attack.

In the Central African Republic, rebels have seized at least 10 northern towns. On Saturday they continued their advance, seizing the city of Sibut, 114 miles from Bangui.

Anglican leader Rowan Williams steps down

LONDON (AP) ? The head of the Church of England is leaving office after a decade as the spiritual leader of the world's 80 million-strong Anglican Communion.

Rowan Williams, the 104th Archbishop of Canterbury, will be replaced by 56-year-old former oil executive Justin Welby, the Bishop of Durham.

The ten years in which the 62-year-old Williams held office saw him struggling to maintain unity within the Anglican Communion amid bitter disagreements over female bishops and church teachings on gay relationships.

Williams has been praised for engaging with church critics and atheists including Richard Dawkins, but he has also raised eyebrows with his opinions on controversial issues including the war in Iraq and Sharia law.

Williams will step down Monday to start a new role as Master of Cambridge University's Magdalene College.
