Minor girl rapist deserves capital punishment: Ex MP Harshakumar

Kakinada, Nov 30 (UNI) Former Rajahmundry MP G V Harshakumar has expressed his anguish over the police apathy in nabbing the culprit responsible for the heinous crime of raping a eight-year-old girl abducting from parents bedside while asleep and thrown her away unconscious along with wooden logs near a saw mill in Jagannadhapuram area in the city a couple of days back.
He told media persons after calling on the victim at the government general hospital and enquiring her health condition with her parents and also the duty doctors on Monday, that the police were acting at the dictates of the ruling party and remaining as silent spectators towards the atrocities committed against the dalits, that are on an increase ever since the YSRCP came to power in the state.
He said the accused responsible for the brutal rape was not even identified clearly indicating the policy failure. Describing the rapist as a human beast, the Ex-MP has demanded awarding of death sentence under the DISHA act.
