  • Raising concerns over the crime and questioning the government, Bachchan said, "I think the people now want the government to give a proper answer. What has happened? How they have tackled it (rape cases)?"

    "Do you not think the security in-charge should be questioned and they should be asked to give an answer why they were not able to protect that area?" she asked.

    The accused should be brought out publicly and lynched: Bachchan

  • In a sharply worded statement, Bachchan opined, "I think these people need to be shamed in front of the entire country. People who have not done their jobs properly. These kind of people (the rape-accused) should be brought out in public and lynched."

    Many Opposition leaders spoke out strongly over the matter

    Meanwhile, AIADMK MP Vijila Sathyananth opined that the accused must be hanged before December 31, adding that a fast-track court should be set up.
