Nirbhaya's mother lashes out at Indira Jaisingh's 'follow Sonia, forgive rapists' shocker

After Advocate Indira Jaising's shocking comment asking Nirbhaya's mother to 'follow' Sonia Gandhi and 'forgive' her daughter's rapists, Nirbhaya's mother Asha Devi has come out to slam the advocate calling her 'a blot' on the name of women. On Friday, Indira Jaising had tweeted an 'appeal' to Asha Devi saying that just like Sonia Gandhi forgave the killer of her husband and stopped her from being hanged, she should do the same. She also stated that while she 'identified with her pain' she was against death penalty. Reacting to her statement Asha Devi asked Jaising how she even 'dared' to say her something so outrageous when the entire country was waiting for justice to be delivered for the past 7 years.

She might be a mother of the rapists, a relative of these rapists but she is nothing to me. I have met her multiple times in the courts, she has never asked me how I was, but when it comes to the well being of the rapists, she is asking for forgiveness."

Their business runs on this. I suggest she should go and get in touch with 2-3 families of rapists so that she can keep running her business. I do not need anyone's suggestions." She also condemned the postponing of the rapists hanging from January 22 to February 1 saying, "What the murders wanted, the courts did, the government did. I am not happy about this at all."

She said that Jaising would never have made such a careless comment if it was her daughter who had gotten raped so brutally instead. "Because of such women, girls are being raped, burnt and brutalized in the country. Because of such a mentality. Would she forgive if such an incident would have happened to her daughter or even her?" she asked. Read:Nirbhaya's mother expresses dissatisfaction with another delay, says 'I'll keep fighting'
