Against the backdrop of the Bilkis Bano case of the 2002 Gujarat riots, BSP member in Lok Sabha Danish Ali on Wednesday demanded that the Centre bring changes in the law to stop the release of convicts in rape cases under the remission policy of the states.
Raising the issue during the Zero Hour, he claimed the country is witnessing a rise in the number of rape cases, and those committing such crimes are getting emboldened by the remission policy of the states.
바카라The reason behind it is that they do not get punished. If punishment is handed down to someone in a case, the state government releases them under remission policy,바카라 Ali said.
바카라Recently such a case came to fore in Gujarat바카라. Convicts in the Bilkis Bano case were released on the grounds that their character was very good. They were welcomed when they came out of the prison,바카라 he said.
"Audacity of those committing such a crime has been continuously increasing바카라I demand that the Centre withdraw the provision of remission. And, such people (those committing rape) should be handed down life imprisonment,바카라 he added.
