If you don't demand Asifa get justice, you belong to nothing, Farhar Akhtar reacts to Kathua rape case

Mumbai, Apr 12 (IBNS): Bollywood actor-director-singer Farhan Akhtar took to social media on Thursday to vent his anger over the Kathua rape case, in which an eight year-old girl was gang-raped, mutilated and murdered months ago.

Farhan tweeted, "Imagine what goes through the mind of an 8 yr old as she is drugged, held captive, gang raped over days and then murdered. If you don’t feel her terror, you are not human. If you don’t demand Asifa get justice, you belong to nothing."

Asifa, the minor, was held captive by the accused at a temple and later she was raped, mutilated and murdered in Rassana village of Kathua months ago, crime branch of Jammu and Kashmir police stated.

However, several lawyers had stopped the police from registering cases against the accused in the case.

After six hours of ruckus, police could file the charge-sheets.

A bandh (strike) was also called in Jammu by several lawyers on Wednesday as a protest against the filing of charge-sheets.
