Nirbhaya Case: High Court to announce at 2:15 pm it's verdict on Subramanian Swamy's plea to not allow the release of the juvenile.


Terming the juvenile convicted in the December 2012 Nirbhaya gang-rape case as an 'animal', BJP leader Subramanian Swamy last week said it is dangerous to free such a convict and appealed to the courts to make certain provisions in the law to deal with such serious offences.

"The juvenile convict should be kept with wild animals for committing such heinous crime. It is dangerous to free such people. There are certain flaws in our law. The juvenile laws are applicable only for people committing crimes like stealing food or bicycle but this law is not applicable for such kind of heinous crimes. There is no provision in the law that if such juvenile accuse do not change in the three years, then what action needs to be taken," Swamy said.

"According to the report of Indian Intelligence bureau, the juvenile accuse has turned into a jihadi. So, the court should interfere and make certain provisions in the law regarding this. The government should move court and seek to arrest the juvenile accused under National Security Act. I am going to court and the court will decide what needs to be done. Let us see how the court case goes," he added.
