#JusticeForJisha: who are the culprits behind the brutal rape that shocked Kerala?
On May 2, Kerala was jolted as the horrendous details of the brutal rape and murder of a 30-year-old dalit woman in Perumbavoor in Ernakulam emerged. The scary incident has once again revived the ghastly memories of December 16, 2012, when a young ph ysiotherapy intern was gang-raped in a moving bus in the national capital. Two persons have been taken into custody in connection with the rape and brutal murder of a 30-year-old Dalit woman which sparked protest marches by students and rights activists across Kerala condemning the incident. The incident was widely discussed online as well throughout the day. One among the prime suspects is a neighbour, who has been taken into custody.
