That is the kind of shock all of us are in. Her mother and sister are inconsolable. Everybody comes and tell us justice will be done. What is the use? Will our smiling daughter comeback? After Nirbhaya [December 2012 gang-rape] too, nothing has changed. That is the tragedy of the country,” he said.
Thousands of protesters gathered outside a police station on the outskirts of Hyderabad on Saturday and demanded the four men accused of raping and murdering the victim, be handed over to them.
