Jwala Gutta on the incident

Earlier on Friday, while talking to Republic TV, Jwala Gutta said, “It is very very shocking. I am from Hyderabad. I always thought that Hyderabad was a safe city compared to others. For a very long time, Indians had been worried about their daughters stepping out of the house. Though things are changing now, such incidents would instil the worry in every family's mind now. It’s really sad, it shouldn’t have happened. I hope everybody gets to learn from this. I hope the judiciary acts really fast on this and punishes the accused as soon as possible. At least the people shouldn't be scared anymore. If the case is prolonged, the trauma that the family is going through will increase many folds."
