Delhi Family Seeks Security Cover After 3 Rape-Torture-Murder Convicts Freed

The family members of a 19-year-old woman who was gang-raped and murdered by three men in 2012 have requested the Delhi Police to provide security, saying they have been threatened after the Supreme Court yesterday ordered the men to be released. The three, Ravi Kumar, Rahul and Vinod, were held guilty and sentenced to death by the trial court in 2014. The Delhi High Court upheld the death sentence, likening the men to "predators" trawling the streets "hunting for prey".
