January 25, 2013 13:42

The family of Delhi gangrape victim today said it would not want anything less than the death sentence for all the accused, including the minor, and urged the central government to amend the law in this connection.

The offer of a government job to someone in the family by the Delhi government was turned down by the victim's brother.

"The family would never accept that the person who played a major role in the crime is let off with a mere punishment of three years only because he has the excuse that he is a minor," the grandfather of the 23-year-old victim said.

The family would urge the central government to amend the law in this connection, he said.
