Join UsMembers of the Indian film fraternity have condemned the Kathua & Unnao rape cases which have sent shock waves across the country. Celebrities like Javed Akhtar, Farhan Akhtar and Nimrat Kaur have called it a gut wrenching, horrendous and disgusting act, for which they have demanded justice.
The celebrities have demanded severe punishment for the blood curdling barbarism.
An eight-year-old girl’s body was recovered from Rassana forest in Kathua district of Jammu on January 17, a week after she went missing while grazing horses in the forest area. She was held captive inside a temple and was sedated before being raped and murdered.
In Unnao in Uttar Pradesh, a case involving the alleged gang rape of a girl by a BJP legislator and others, and the death of her father in police custody, has come to light.
Here’s what the celebrities tweeted:
All those who wish justice for women should stand up and raise their voices against the rapists and their protectors in Unnao and Kathua .

Imagine what goes through the mind of an 8 yr old as she is drugged, held captive, gang raped over days and then murdered.
If you don’t feel her terror, you are not human.
If you don’t demand Asifa get justice, you belong to nothing.— Farhan Akhtar (@FarOutAkhtar) April 12, 2018

Equal rights/gender bias/pay disparity all seem like such distant, first world concerns.Lets begin with addressing the unmentionable horrors of the absense of humanity.The only way forward, if at all, from this blood curdling barbarism is justice.Heartbroken and aghast. #Asifa

The religion of the victim and the religion of the rapist should never matter! It is of no consequence! Rape is a crime against humanity!!! Appalled that some people can actually support rapists! ? Shocked beyond belief!

If these people had an iota of reverence and respect for Hinduism, they’d be up in arms against the people who used a temple to torture, rape and murder a child!
