Foreign tourists not following rules, says MP minister

PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

Bhopal, Mar 17: Terming as "unfortunate" the incident of gangrape of a Swiss woman, Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Uma Shankar Gupta  today said foreign tourists were not following rules about informing local police about their movements.
"What happened is unfortunate for our nation. When foreign tourists come, they should inform the SP (Superintendent of Police) about their plans. This is the system but it is not being followed," he said. The Swiss female tourist, on a cycling trip along with her husband, was allegedly gangraped by seven to eight men at a forest area in Datia district, on the night of March 15.  The Minister said they will be taking steps to ensure such incidents do not recur.
"They had their tent in the outer area of the city but the incident should not happen, so we will think what more can be done for foreign tourists," he said.
