New Delhi:Nearly nine months after 23-year-old Nirbhaya was gang-raped by six persons on a moving bus in Delhi, Juvenile Justice Board has pronounced the juvenile guilty.
The father of the student who was fatally gang-raped on a moving bus in Delhi today said, “It is a crime to be born a girl in this country.”
Like his wife, he broke down after a juvenile court found one of the six accused guilty of rape and murder.
Because he was 17 when he committed the crime, he has been sentenced to three years in a reform home, but the judge knocked off eight months for the time he has already spent in a juvenile centre since his arrest.
The parents of the physiotherapy intern who died said the juvenile should be hanged.
