long with this, she said that on March 20, she will celebrate Nirbhaya Day. After getting justice, Asha Devi greeted Nirbhaya's picture, hugged and said, "Daughter, you have got justice now." He said, "Today we got justice, this day is dedicated to the daughters of the country. I would like to thank the judiciary and the government. Our daughter is no longer alive and will not return either. We started this fight when she left us and left. This struggle was for her, but we will continue this fight for our daughters in the future. ”
With this, Nirbhaya's father Badrinath expressed his happiness over the decision, saying, "Today we have won and all this was possible due to media, society and Delhi Police." You can understand what is going on in our heart by seeing our smile. "
However, counsel for Nirbhaya's convicts continued their efforts till the end. In this attempt, the High Court first tried to avoid this hanging in the Supreme Court but that did not work. His lawyer AP Singh reached the Supreme Court late at night to stop the execution of the four convicts who were awaiting execution. AP Singh also staged a sit-in outside the court before the hearing. Then during the hearing, the Supreme Court rejected Pawan Gupta's plea to be minor and asked his lawyer AP Singh why you repeatedly claim the conviction of a minor by arguing for a school certificate. The court asked AP Singh on what basis he was challenging the President's dismissal of the mercy petition. Apart from this, the arguments they are giving are all old arguments, which they have kept earlier.
Significantly, the Supreme Court door opened at midnight on July 30, 2015, when the petition of Yakub Memon, convicted for the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts, was rejected by the President. At that time, several lawyers including lawyer Prashant Bhushan had appealed late night to postpone the execution.
Earlier on 25 October 1983, four people were hanged together in Pune's Yerwada Jail. Between January 1976 and March 1977, they had massively killed 10 people. Dhananjay Chatterjee was last awarded in the Alipore Central Jail on 14 August 2004 in connection with the rape case. He was guilty of raping and killing a 14-year-old student in Kolkata. After this, 3 terrorists Afzal Guru, Ajmal Kasab, and Yakub Menon were hanged on the cross.
