I read just this morning that, while he claimed that he is a minor, the cops have asked for a denture analysis or some such thing to confirm the fact! But yes, once proved beyond doubt, he cannot even be tried under IPC. We were just discussing this whole human rights thing at home this morning. Rahul Bose is against death penalty and chemical castration and just about everything. He wants the law to take its course. He calls for attitudinal change. However, that will have long term consequences. Must ask these actiivists to come up with short term plans on how to deal with the guilty!

It's already established that he is a minor & after 5 months he will be an adult.Since at the time of the incident he was a minor he won't be tried under normal laws.But he won't be sent to juvenilie home also.The law makers had never thought of such a scenario.It's the victim who suffers while the culprits are shielded by laws & human rights!

Sujatha-What people like Rahul Bose don't understand that victim also had human rights.Attitudinal changes are must but won't come overnight.Punishment is equally necessary.Look at Saudi Arabia, atleast people fear the law there.

@underlined...where were these so called activists when a defenceless girl was brutalized by 6 men on a running bus and thrown out of it once they had their fun?? why didn't they raise their voice against that? and what kind of attitudinal change?? you think making them read Bhagwat Gita or Khuraan or Bible will bring about this change in them? they didn't change their attitude when that girl was screaming in pain and for mercy...attitudinal change can't be brought in psychopaths...and thats what these are...PSYCHOPATHS!!!!

@BOLD THIS IS WHAT I MEANT BY RETROSPECTIVE LAWS...EVEN IF HE WILL BE 21 AFTER 5 MONTHS U CANT GUIDE HIM BY A LAW WHICH HE WAS NOT A SUBJECT TO WHILE HE COMMITED THAT CRIME...this is what is called ex post facto law

Anger, grief, shame, RIP you fighter. As a headline in a daily put it, 'RIP, we won't' - and that alone would be our true tribute to this fighter. Whether it's little changes in our milieu or comprehensive changes in legislation, let us together not allow this momentum to die down, until we effect these changes - else we will all have to collectively hang our heads in shame, as there will be no greater betrayal to this braveheart!

but these people from saudi arabia come and break the laws in india and force indian girls (i think u understand what i mean)

That means they don't fear Indian law.But let's not go off the topic.Attitudinal changes in society which is not possible without proper education, strict laws & their implementation are all very necessary.

@sujaji and sujataji...yes it does need a kick but the problem is not with the law it is the system to be blamed...in lndia laws r made to be broken or amended...if any law is not as per the whims and wishes of the parlimentary people they amend the laws...and as far as this act of protecting the minors is concerned in this case he should be punished no doubt in it...but this act is required for other minors and there are number of cases that can be sited to show y the act is needed...and that kick first should b given to our politicians first and then the law
