plungesponge public gang rapes??? never heard of them... where i live is a little developed city area , no one touches women infront of public. Men gang rape when no one is around, by taking women to isolated areas. Men cat call me secretly here bcuz they don't have guts to do it publicly... I might get shamed if i am wearing short dress but they shame men too if do it in public. But if they do it when alone, society might blame women, espeically if full intercourse... society blames women i believe.... Police might take action on rapists if the police offiecer is supportive towards women rights but if he is not, he might also blame the victim.
Maybe public gang rapes happen in uneducated or poor areas in india where there is no rules or regulations. I heard in uneducated and poor areas there is rapes based of caste-hatred.
Recently there were awareness programs near public areas in my city to contact local women help if anyone harasses women, even on online and public both
