For what it’s worth, I feel that if you’re old enough to knowingly commit a crime this brutal, you’re old enough to face real consequences.

The same story repeats again & again, it’s just crushingly sad. No words left.. #PriyankaReddy you did not deserve this, your life was precious. ?
9. Richa Chadda
undefined src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" >Her only crime was she trusted these men who promised to fix her scooty.Perpetrators are given the harshest punishment, they don’t belong in society. They won her trust and then brutalised her. Treated her like a thing, not a human being.
