An Indian woman who was set on fire on her way to testify against her alleged rapists has died of her injuries.
The 23-year-old died after suffering cardiac arrest at a Delhi hospital.
She had 90% burns.
She was attacked as she was walking to a hearing in the rape case she filed against two men in March in Unnao, in northern Uttar Pradesh state.
BBC News reports five men, including the alleged rapists, have been arrested.
The sister of the victim, whose name has not been released, told the BBC that she wanted the death penalty for the pair.
She said the family would continue to fight the case against them in court.
Rape and sexual violence against women have been in focus in India since the December 2012 gang-rape and murder of a young woman on a bus in the capital, Delhi.
But there has been no sign that crimes against women are abating.
According to government figures, police registered 33,658 cases of rape in India in 2017, an average of 92 rapes every day.
