Srinagar: Joint Resistance Leadership Thursday demanded capital punishment for the accused involved in rape and murder of 8-year old girl Asifa Bano in Jammu’s Kathua district.
“We resolves to fight for the justice to Asifa. We demand all the accused should be hanged,” JKLF Chairman, Muhammad Yasin Malik said.
Syed Ali Shah Geelani and Mirwaiz Umer Farooq telephonically addressed the rally.
“JRL Presser: Nothing can be more evil and shameless than supporting the rapists and murderers of an 8 year old girl child and then threatening the community to which the child belonged with dire consequence! It reflects the total moral bankruptcy of BJP in supporting the front that is threatening the Gujjars in Kathua and completely exposes its communal and anti humanity mindset for reaping political dividends!”- Mirwaiz wrote on his twitter handle.
