There’s a special place in hell for anyone who responds this way to such a horrific crime.
A lawmaker from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ruling party has described rape as a social crime, saying ‘sometimes it’s right, sometimes it’s wrong.’
The latest controversial remarks by an Indian politician about rape came as political leaders of Uttar Pradesh, the state where two cousins aged 12 and 14 were raped and hanged last week, have faced criticism for failing to visit the scene and for accusing the media of hyping the story…A regional politician from Modi’s own party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), said on Thursday that the crime of rape can only be considered to have been committed if it is reported to police.
