Protests have erupted in several parts of India after the body of a gang-rape victim was cremated late at night, against the wishes of her family.

The 19-year-old victim from the Dalit community – the lowest rung of the ancient Hindu caste system – was attacked and raped on September 14 in a field near her home in Hathras district, 100km (62 miles) from the capital, New Delhi, authorities said.
