The public should be united and treat such criminals.
Our Police and Justice system can not hand effectively because of loop holes in our Judicial system. we don't blame the officers, the law is very weak.

Whoever does such act specially molester of girls, should be punished regardless his religious background.

If the people work together unitedly, then can control without the help of police or court. The police can relax!!!!!

This is the right way to teach this people a lesson then only they will learn a lesson and might change their habits.

Bajrangies are shameless creatures...filthy.....worst people...and not good at all.....
