Nirbhaya

The 2012 Nirbhaya gang rape case that took place in Delhi shocked the entire nation. The four men convicted of the rape and murder with barbarity of a 23-year-old woman in a moving bus in Delhi were hanged till death at 5:30 am on Friday, March 20, 2020. After 7-long-years of the brutal incidence, justice has finally been served with the hanging of the culprits at the Tihar Jail.

The convicts - Mukesh Singh, Akshay Thakur, Pawan Gupta, and Vinay Sharma were hanged under tight security as hundreds of police personnel were deployed outside the jail to control a crowd that waited to celebrate the hangings. While Nirbhaya’s mother has finally breathed a sigh of relief, social media has been more than just a platform that celebrated the hanging. Many celebrities like Riteish Deshmukh, Preity Zinta, Taapsee Pannu, amongst others shared their thoughts over the same.

Highlighting that the justice has been served, Riteish Deshmukh tweeted, "Stricter law enforcement, harsher punishment & fast courts for quick justice is the only way to instil fear in monsters who even think of such heinous acts. #JusticeForNirbhaya." He also sent out his prayers to the family and friends of Nirbhaya.
