CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin said that the move to cancel the commutation of the accused in the Bilkis Banu gang-rape case is welcome. He said the verdict exposes BJP’s duplicity and is a light in dark times. His reference was through X.
Justice was finally served. The victory of justice is comfort. The Supreme Court judgment is a ray of confidence in the midst of darkness, he said.
While pronouncing the verdict, the Supreme Court had strongly criticized the Gujarat government. The court said that the government is colluding with the accused and distorting the law for political gains. Last day, the Supreme Court issued an order canceling the punishment of the accused. Bilquis Banu responded that after the verdict, she got a chance to smile again and the verdict helped all other women in the country to maintain faith in justice system.
