Justice Basant is not the only person who believes that a girl
who loves someone more than her parents is "deviant / abnormal" and
that she can not be raped, she can only be a prostitute. He is only
voicing the judgements of a sick society that almost always criticizes
the woman whenever there is an assault on her.
The Supreme
Court judges who decided on capital punishment for Afzal Guru wrote
down in their order that "the collective conscience of the society will
only be satisfied if capital punishment is awarded to [him].
Unfortunately, these collective consciences cannot be hanged to death by a law or by a court order.
