After the convicted rapist Mukhul Singh who blamed the victim for the incident. His defence lawyers continue to stand with their claims made in the documentary.
The documentary ‘India’s Daughter’, by British filmmaker Leslee Udwin on the grisly incident sent shockwaves across the country.
In an interview with TOI, Lawyer ML Sharma stuck to his stance on the case and said “If you keep sweets on the street then dogs will come and eat them. Why did Nirbhaya’s parents send her with anyone that late at night? He was not her boyfriend.
Is it not the parents’ responsibility to keep an eye on where she goes and with whom?” said advocate ML Sharma.
“They came for eight or nine days to interview me but I was never shown the finished version.Yes, I said that Indian culture is the best culture. In our culture, there is no place for a woman.” he added.
Another lawyer AP Singh also slammed the documentary being aired because he believes that it amounts to media trial. Singh said that “When the documentary makers came to me to speak to my clients we went to the jail but the superintendent refused to let them meet the convicts.
The statements of Mukesh Singh from Tihar Jail said that women who went out at night had only themselves to blame if they attracted the attention.
