Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Hans Raj Hans on Tuesday handed over a cheque of ₹1 Lakh to the kin of the minor girl killed in Delhi's Shahbad Dairy area, a day after he said youth sometimes get "carried away by emotions" and act like "fools". The BJP MP from north-west Delhi assured the family of stringent punishment for the accused and said he has spoken to the police regarding the case.
“…You will not be able to watch the complete video (of the crime)… if you are a parent, and will not be able to sleep,” the singer-politician said after handing over the cheque.
"Shame on any party that is doing politics after such a tragedy...There were so many people there, they should have caught him then and there. It pained me to see that video," he added.
The murder took place within the limits of the Shahbad Dairy Police Station in Delhi and the body of the girl, a resident of the area's JJ Colony, was found lying on the street.
