A teenager died after she was allegedly
r.a.p.e.d by a group of boys at a house
party.
Jhoselin Monica Calani, 17, attended the
gathering at a friend's house on October
16. She is believed to have collapsed
during the celebrations.
It is believed she was then brutally
raped by the group in Oruro, Bolivia.
When she woke, Jhoselin complained of
soreness in her hips and struggled to
stand.
She was dashed to hospital but died
there two weeks later.
Her grief-stricken mum now wants the
four teenage boys arrested on suspicion
of her rape to be prosecuted for murder
or femicide.
“I want to tell you those guys cannot go
out, justice must be carried out, they
must pay for what they did, they should
not be punished with a minor penalty,”
she said.
Police continue to investigate the
tragedy, and are questioning the
suspects, each aged 16 or 17.
Alcohol was served at the party,
officers say.
But they are exploring whether other
drugs were also present.
Orlando Zapata, the Oruro department
attorney, said Jhoselin “did not
remember what happened, she felt very
cold and presented a strong pain in the
hips”.
Hundreds gathered to mourn Jhoselin at
her funeral last week.
