Kangana Ranaut on Nirbhaya rape convicts: They should be hanged in public

Kangana Ranaut is one actress who always speaks up about social and political issues. We all know that the Nirbhaya rape convicts have been sentenced to death and Kangana feels that rapists should be hanged in public.

Recently, during a press conference for her movie Panga, when Kangana was asked about the Nirbhaya convicts, the actress said, "I don’t think these rapists should be hanged silently. What is the point of capital punishment, if you cannot set an example? They should be hanged in public.”


Well, a few days ago, lawyer, Indira Jaising had tweeted that Nirbhaya’s mother Asha Devi should forgive the convicts. She had tweeted, “While I fully identify with the pain of Asha Devi I urge her to follow the example of Sonia Gandhi who forgave Nalini and said she didn’t not want the death penalty for her . We are with you but against death penalty.”

When Kangana was asked about Jaising’s comment, the actress stated, "That woman should be locked in jail with those rapists for four days. She needs it. What kind of women are these, who are sympathetic to rapists? Such women give birth to monsters. These women, who are full of love and sympathy for rapists and murderers, are the ones who give birth to them.”

Talking about Kangana’s movies, the actress will next be seen on the big screen in Panga which is slated to release on 24th January 2020. She also has movies like Dhaakad and Thalaivi in her kitty.
