‘Punish them. They’ve ruined my life’ 22-YEAR-OLD PHOTOJOURNALIST’S GANGRAPE TRIGGERS OUTRAGE ACROSS COUNTRY

No Other Woman Should Suffer Such An Ordeal, Victim Tells Mom


Mumbai: "I want no other woman in this city and country to go through such brutal physical humiliation. The perpetrators should be punished severely as they have ruined my life. No punishment short of a life term will take away my pain and the humiliation and physical abuse I underwent." This was the victim's first reaction as she spoke to her mother from the hospital bed soon after Thursday's gruesome rape assault on her by a gang of five in an abandoned mill compound in Mumbai. 
    The victim said she wants life imprisonment for the perpetrators. "They have ruined my life and caused immense humiliation and physical pain," she is learned to have told her family. Barely 12 hours after the horrendous crime, the 22-year-old displayed "tremendous courage", said a source close to the family. She was alert and was closely monitoring each development as it unfolded on the 

television in her hospital room. 
    The source told TOI that she has started coming to terms with the gruesome incident. "She is mentally tough and determined to finish her project as it goes on display in the near future," said the source suggesting that she would go on to finish the assignment she was working on for the national magazine. She has been working with the company as an intern for three and a half months. 
    According to the source, after spending a very restless night, the victim had her first cup of tea only on Friday evening. "She was on drips the whole night and on Friday morning," said the relative adding that the news programmes on the incident playing on TV only made her stronger. "She spent parts of the evening watching the news, which failed to ruffle her," the source said.
