Terrible to even talk about Kathua rape case: Amitabh Bachchan
Mumbai, Apr 19 (IBNS): Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan has said he feels terrible to even react to the gang-rape and murder of an eight-year old girl in Kathua district of Jammu and Kashmir.
Bachchan made the comment at a promotional event of his upcoming film 102 Not Out.
Bachchan, who was seen advocating women's empowerment in film Pink, was asked by one reporter to react to the incident which occurred months ago.
Refraining from giving an answer, Bachchan said: "I feel disgusted to discuss the matter....It is terrible to even talk about it."
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.
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.
The Crime Branch has later filed a charge sheet against eight accused who allegedly raped and murdered the eight year old child in Rassana area of Heeranagar.
