the ministers of this region should not support this criminals. As i knw(hav strong proof-get the report from police station) one of the minister forced police to not commite rape case against these terrorist. There are lot f terrorist activities going on in these region, but v police r powerless under ministers. I request these minister rather than looking at vote bank treat every1 the same, nd hang these criminal+ hang d 1more criminal from kuttar region who played with lot of girls life.
i fully agree with Abdul Hameed”s comment but law should
take its course and hang the culprits. if not done, crime

No verdict just chop their head and display in public so that nobody should ever think doing this crime in future.
