Priyanka Chopra Writes An Emotional Letter On Nirbhaya’s Verdict, Lauds Supreme Court
Post SC’s ruling on the Nirbhaya rape case, not just her family members but the entire nation along with Bollywood celebrities shared their emotions on the verdict. Priyanka Chopra has penned a heartfelt letter on the same...
Yesterday, the
Supreme Court gave out its final verdict in the Nirbhaya Gang rape case. The
Supreme Court not only got a standing ovation from the media but also a lot of
Bollywood celebrities voiced their opinions and lauded the Supreme Court which upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court to hang four
convicts.
Among a host of
celebs, there was Priyanka Chopra as well, who put out a very emotional letter
for Nirbhaya on her Twitter handle.
Here’s what she
wrote:
"Yes, it
has taken five long years, but today justice finally prevailed. The flame of
this verdict should singe not just the dastardly four (of the other two, one is
dead and one accused is a juvenile) but other such perpetrators in India as
well. "The brutal, barbaric and demoniacal conduct of the convicts shook
the conscience of humanity and they don't deserve leniency," said the
Supreme Court while reading out the death sentence to the four accused in the
Nirbhaya rape-cum-murder case. I'm so Proud of the Justice system for hearing
her voice... in her dying declaration she appealed that her perpetrators not to
be spared.
Justice - that
is what an entire country demanded five years ago and never let the nation
forget. Each voice that joined the battle was strident and clear - the six must
be punished. Finally, they will pay. The brutality of such crimes is something
I refuse to accept!!
That we, as a
modern 21st century society, allow such heinous things to happen to our women
never ceases to trouble me. Unfortunately, the past can never be undone. So, we
move on and make a promise to ourselves. That when an entire country is unified
in wanting something, action is taken. This awakening, this unified voice to
stop such brutal and demoniacal crimes, as our Supreme Court said, is what we
must never let go onto mute mode.
You will never
be forgotten Nirbhaya."
