The award of capital punishment to the convict in the rape and murder of a five-year-old girl in Aluva brought some relief to the child’s parents.
Just a couple of hours before the additional district sessions court for trying atrocities against women and children awarded capital punishment to the convict, Asafak Alam, the girl’s parents had reiterated their desire to see the same.
The victim’s father said he had full faith in the Kerala government. “He should be hanged. He has no right to live. If let outside, another child will have to face the same fate as my daughter. People like him will not change. He is a demon in the form of a human,” he said. He had demanded it on the very same day his daughter’s body was recovered from the Aluva market.
