Shame, shame Delhi, say celebrities about rape of 5-year-old

A five-year-old girl was abducted on April 15 and held hostage in east Delhi's Gandhi Nagar for over two days.

Highlights

  • People from various walks of life have condemned the rape of a five-year-old girl now battling for life after being repeatedly raped for two days, calling it "evil" and "shameful" and even labelling the capital as balatkaar (rape) Delhi.
  • The girl was abducted on April 15 and held hostage in east Delhi's Gandhi Nagar for over two days, according to police.
  • Celebs took to Twitter to express their horror and views:
  • Abhay Deol: A five-year-old girl was raped several times by her neighbour, who abducted and kept her hostage inside his flat in New Delhi for two days. This is evil.
  • Manoj Bajpayee: Shame, shame. It happens again in Delhi. How can you even describe this brutality?
  • Pritish Nandy: When I hear of a child being gang-raped, I feel lynching should be reintroduced...another gang-rape in Delhi, this time a little girl. Police even more insensitive. They even offered the poor parents a bribe to shut up. So rape happens because girls wear sexy clothes, drink and smoke, na? I guess the five-year-old was guilty too.
  • Composer Vishal Dadlani: What on earth is India coming to? The police now offers hush-money to parents whose little daughters are raped!? Those cops need to be hung!
  • Theatre director Arvind Gaur: Shame rape Delhi. It's not dildaar Delhi it's balatkaar Delhi. What's the meaning of law and order? The 5-year-old is in critical condition after being brutally tortured and raped.
  • Composer Ehsaan Noorani: Appalling...what happened in Delhi. Cursed are men who do this.
