Two Days Of News And Then People Forget: Nirbhaya's Mother On Ghaziabad Gangrape Case

Nirbhaya's mother spoke on the Ghaziabad gangrape case reported on Wednesday and said the police and administration have to do their jobs with honesty to avert such incidents.

Nirbhaya's mother Asha Devi said the police have to do their jobs with honesty to ensure safety of women as she spoke about the Ghaziabad gangrape case.

Asha Devi, mother of the victim of the December 16, 2012 gangrape case, said Wednesday people move on easily even after ghastly rape cases, even as she blamed the authorities for not doing much to ensure the safety of women. She was speaking after a woman was allegedly gangraped and tortured in Ghaziabad, and an iron rod was allegedly inserted into her private part.

"Two days of news and then people forget", she said, while speaking to ABP Live. Sharing her thoughts after a woman was allegedly gangraped and tortured over two days in Ghaziabad, she said: "It has been 10 years since the Nirbhaya case, we are still in the past."

Questioning the police, she said, "Don't know if the police have a problem with women or they just don't want to work."
Asha Devi added: "Nirbhaya got justice, but so many others like her have not. Most cases are pending in courts."

Blaming the authorities for the situation, she added: "In some way, the police and governments are responsible for such cases. These are happening every day. If we really want safety and justice, the police should work with honesty."
