Mulayam calls rapists 'bechara'

April 10, 2014 17:58

Mulayam Singh also implied that the photo-journalist who was gang-raped at Shakti Mills in Mumbai in August 2013, went to the police because of "differences with the men."

"The boys and girls ... later they had differences, and the girl went and gave a statement that I have been raped. And then the poor fellows, three of them have been sentenced to death. Should rape cases lead to hanging? They are boys, they make mistakes. Two or three have been given the death sentence in Mumbai. We will try and change such laws...we will also ensure punishment of those who report false cases," he said in Moradabad.
