Texsox Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Early leader for the Tsunami Victim Teenager Raped by Would be Rescuer :headshake :puke GALLE, Sri Lanka (AP) - She survived the tsunami, only to suffer the brutality of her rescuer. On a pilgrimage to a temple, the 18-year-old and her family stopped for a picnic by the beach. That's when the tsunami struck. Flailing in the water, the teenager heard a voice. "He told me to grab his hand, that he will save me," she said. She and the stranger were swept into a muddy river. When they reached a bank, he pushed her into a bed of brambles and raped her. "I screamed and told him not to hurt me," the shy teenager told The Associated Press. "He put his hands around my neck and told me that even if he kills me right there, no one will know."
