Well Done Police!

Please Understand the Matter!

Cant Imagine the Horror!

Hyderabad police encountered the criminals who gang-raped and killed an innocent girl earlier this week. Police did not arrest them and rather shot them dead. The matter has become a national issue currently. While some people and politicians are supporting Hyderabad police’s actions on the basis of justice, some others are angry over the alleged autocratic way police has taken action against the culprits. According to Indian law, a rapist can be sent to seven years in prison or can also face the death penalty over the heinous crime of rape.
