Nirbhaya's killers executed - Local people assembled outside the Tihar Jail to pay their tribute to Nirbhaya.
New Delhi: People waiting outside Tihar Jail celebrated and distributed sweets as the clock struck 5.30 a.m. on Friday. Slogans of 'Nirbhaya zindabad' and 'live long Nirbhaya' were also raised as they learnt about the hanging of the convicts.
As the countdown to the hanging of four death-row convicts in the Nirbhaya gang rape and murder case entered its final phase, the crowd loudly did the final countdown; a handful of posters reading "thanks to judiciary" and "the morning of justice" also were propped up outside the Tihar Jail premises, reported IANS.
One of them saluted Nirbhaya's mother keeping the fight alive and making sure her daughter gets justice after 7 long years.
Another said " justice was served late but we are happy that they are finally hanged."
The four rapists were executed seven years after they and two others brutally gang raped the 23-year-old physiotherapy student and left her to die by the roadside on December 16, 2012.
