Mangaluru, Apr 18: Congress leader and Member of Karnataka Legislative Assembly from Puttur, Shakuntala Shetty has suggested Taliban model punishment for the temple rapists of Kashmir.

Speaking at a party meeting in her constituency yesterday, Ms Shetty said that those who gang-raped 8-year-old girl inside a temple at Kashmir’s Kathua for a week and later murdered her should be hanged to death in full public view.

“The rapists have exhibited shocking cruelty. They are disgrace to humanity. They should be hanged ruthlessly in public. None of them should be spared,” she said. 

Ms Shetty, who was once a BJP leader, also questioned the silence of saffron party over the rapes and murders committed by the so called Hindutva leaders and activists.
