Shaken to my core.#JusticeforAsifa
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.
The Crime Branch has already filed a charge sheet against eight accused who allegedly raped and murdered the eight year old child in Rassana area of Heeranagar.
There have been allegations that some BJP-backed supporters are trying to defend the rapists demanding transfer of case from Crime Branch to CBI.
