Sex attacks on foreign tourists are not being taken seriously by the Indian government, according to a British woman whose rapist was released on bail after serving three months of a 21-year jail sentence.

The victim, who cannot be named for legal reasons, spoke out as the country's secretary for culture and tourism Sujit Banerjee visited London on a trip to promote the country.

She was brutally assaulted on Christmas Eve last year, suffering bleeding and convulsions for days afterwards and was forced to remain in India for four months while her attacker Parbat Singh went on trial.
