#Kathua: Punjab CM terms Asifa’s rape-cum-murder ‘sickening perversity’

Srinagar

Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh Friday described the rape and killing of the 8-year-old girl in Kathua as “sickening perversity” and sought “exemplary punishment” for those involved in the crime.

“Sickening perversity that deserves only exemplary punishment. Nothing can justify the horrific crime perpetrated against an 8-year-old. It’s not the time to procrastinate or politicise, but to rise in one voice for #Asifa #JusticeforAsifa #IfThisWasYourChild #Kathua (sic),” he tweeted.

On January 17, the body of a minor girl was found in the forests near Rasana, Hiranagar. The girl had been missing for a week. According to police, she had been abducted and raped by an SPO Deepak Khajuria, who was a part of the team sent out to find her when she was missing.

Nine accused, including the alleged mastermind Sanji Ram – an ex-bureaucrat – and his son Vishal Kumar, a police head constable, two SPOs and a sub-inspector of police, have been arrested in the case.
