I honestly don't know what to say here. I can think of no valid reason that these doctors would make such a claim.
A case will be registered against two doctors who had wrongly stated that a 10-year-old dalit girl was sexually assaulted in Anwarpur village last Saturday, a senior police official said.
Dr Poonam Mani and Dr Sadhna Tiwari of Saraswati Institute of Medical Science in Pilakhuwa had stated this about the minor dalit girl who later succumbed to burn injuries, SSP Raghubir Lal said today.
Lal said that the postmortem did not confirm rape, but it stated that the 80 per cent burn injuries was the reason for the victim's death.
The victim was engulfed in flames when the door of the room was broken in order to save her, he said.
The SSP did not rule out suicide angle, besides family rivalry for the death.

Officials say Strauss-Kahn case seen as in jeopardy
By JIM DWYER, WILLIAM K. RASHBAUM and JOHN ELIGON
The New York Times
The sexual assault case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn is on the verge of collapse as investigators have uncovered major holes in the credibility of the housekeeper who charged that he attacked her in his Manhattan hotel suite in May, according to two well-placed law enforcement officials.
Although forensic tests found unambiguous evidence of a sexual encounter between Mr. Strauss Kahn, a French politician, and the woman, prosecutors do not believe much of what the accuser has told them about the circumstances or about herself.
Since her initial allegation on May 14, the accuser has repeatedly lied, one of the law enforcement officials said.

This was simply a ploy to get Strauss-Kahn out of the way for a more "American Friendly" replacement.
No surprise.
As far as Docs making false rape statements, it happens all the time here in the good old US of A.
"Examination normal:this is is indicative of sexual abuse" is a standard comment for rape exams that show an intact hymen.
It's called "covering your ass".
Small rumbles are beginning to come out about the "Shaken Baby Syndrome" diagnoses, where hundreds if not thousands of innocent people have been convicted of a crime they did not commit because of over enthusiastic doctors.
