Wide of media in front of the court\u003cbr/\u003eAs Indian police prepared on Thursday to file rape and murder charges against a group of men accused of sexually assaulting a 23-year-old university student, protesters continued to gather on the city streets calling for severe punishments for the perpetrators.\u003cbr/\u003eSince the attack on December 16 last year, women have held near-daily protests and candle-light vigils in New Delhi, demanding action be taken to stop\u003cbr/\u003ethe daily harassment they face, from groping to even more violent attacks.\u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile on Thursday, the Indian Bar Association said its lawyers would not defend the six suspects because of the nature of the crime, though the court is expected to appoint attorneys to defend them.\u003cbr/\u003eSigns pinned to a banner held by protesters in New Delhi carried messages such as  \"Black Day January 3, 2013\" and \"Those who can't change their thinking can't change anything\".\u003cbr/\u003e\"We are just saying that why should such an incident happen?\" said 30-year-old entrepreneur  Shruti Kohli. \"Why should, you know, the police be filing such a case, because each time, their role should be to stop such things from happening, rather than filing charge sheets.\" \u003cbr/\u003eEighteen-year-old student Ashima Sharma, called for a \"strict, strict, strict punishment\" for those responsible.\u003cbr/\u003e\"A very strict punishment, that all men of India should be aware that they are not going to treat the women like the way they treated her,\" she added.\u003cbr/\u003eTwo men lying on the ground wrapped in blankets had reportedly been on hunger strike for 11 days in protest at the governments response to the attack on the woman.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Why is the government not listening to us?\" asked Rajesh Aggarwal. \"My demand is that a special session of Parliament be convened and the government should change the law so that the perpetrators of such crimes can be hanged to death.\"\u003cbr/\u003eA poster nearby called for the rapists to be hanged for their crimes.\u003cbr/\u003eThe December 16 attack on the woman, who later died of her injuries, has caused outrage across India and sparked demands for tough new rape laws, better police protection for women and a sustained campaign to change society's views about women.\u003cbr/\u003ePolice arrested six people in the case and were set to file charges on Thursday in a new fast-track court in south Delhi that was inaugurated the day before to deal specifically with crimes against women, according to police spokesman Rajan Bhagat. \u003cbr/\u003eWomen's activists hope that the rape and killing of the university student last month will mark a turning point in behaviour toward women in India. \u003cbr/\u003eThe victim, whose name has not been revealed, was attacked after boarding a bus with a male companion after watching an evening showing of the movie \"Life of Pi.\" \u003cbr/\u003eThe vehicle was a charter bus that illegally picked up the two passengers, authorities said. \u003cbr/\u003eThe driver was among the six arrested. \u003cbr/\u003eThe pair were attacked for hours as the bus drove through the city, even passing through police checkpoints during the assault, and were eventually dumped naked on the side of the road. \u003cbr/\u003eThe woman, who was assaulted with an iron bar, suffered severe internal injuries that eventually caused her to die on Saturday at a hospital in Singapore.\u003cbr/\u003eMedia reports say police have gathered 30 witnesses, and the charges have been detailed in a document running more than 1-thousand pages. \u003cbr/\u003ePolice also detained the owner of the bus used in the crime on accusations that he used false documents to obtain permits to run the private bus service.\u003cbr/\u003eThe decision by the Bar Association to refuse to defend those accused was defended by lawyer Pulkit Sachdeva, at New Delhi's Saket district court where the Thursday's hearing was set to take place.\u003cbr/\u003e\"The crime committed by them (the accused) is very heinous, and as a mark of respect to the girl, victim, and as a message that we want to send to the society, that we want our city to be safe, and such criminals will not get representation from our side,\" he
