Delhi rape: Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party demands death penalty for accused

JAMMU: Anguished over the rape of a five-year-old girl in the national capital, the youth wing of the Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party(JKNPP) today demanded capital punishment for the accused.

"It is horrifying the way the small girl was raped and it has crossed all the limits of inhumanity in the National Capital, which has become the den of such activities," National Panthers Student Union (NPSU) president, Thakur Virender Singh said.

"There is no security of even innocent children," Singh said, adding that such culprits should be hanged publicly.

Blaming the Centre for increase in such incidents, the NPSU leader said, "UPA has failed to protect the common man and the national capital has become rape capital, which is very disheartening".
