Authorities in the Indian capital, Delhi, say an official letter that encouraged doctors to use a banned test to determine whether

a woman had been raped was "misinterpreted".



The note, issued in May, said doctors could insert two fingers into the patient's vagina to assess injuries.



Critics say the test is often used by defence to argue that victims are used to having sex and have not been raped.

The "two-finger test" has been banned by India's health ministry.  :-[



Activists have long opposed the test for being unnecessary and discriminatory to women -

they say it adds to the trauma and humiliation of rape victims and often allows a rapist to get away.
