Debate Over Capital Punishment For Rapists Rages After Milind Soman’s Tweet

Bhubaneswar: After model and actor Milind Soman advocated public killing of rapists following the Hathras case, some women took to Twitter to remind him that crimes continue to happen despite death penalties while other users commented there’s no place for capital punishment in a civilized society.

People are demanding justice for the 19-year-old Dalit girl, who was cremated in the dead of night, against the family’s wish.

Amid the countrywide cry for justice, the debate over capital punishment for heinous crimes like rape has resurfaced.

Nirbhaya convicts were hanged, so were the accused in Telangana techie’s rape case. But such crimes against women haven’t stopped.

Here’s Milind Soman’s tweet and the reactions:
