Photojournalist demands life term for the rapists, wants to get back to work


The 22-year-old magazine intern, who was gang-raped at an abandoned mill in Mumbai on Thursday, wants her attackers to be sentenced to life imprisonment.

According to the budding photojournalist's mother, her daughter said she did not want any other woman to go through such humiliation and no punishment short of a life term would take away her pain, reported a newspaper on Saturday.

It also quoted a hospital source saying the woman wanted to finish her photo shoot assignment at the mill and continue with her internship at the magazine.

The source said after spending a restless night, the woman had her first cup of tea on Friday evening and she also kept the news on TV which reported the police's attempt to catch the culprits and the public and political ire against the incident.

According to another newspaper report, the woman also spoke to a National Commission for Woman member.

She told Nirmala Samant Prabhawalkar that she was brave and "ready to fight it out" and said she wanted to go back to her job as soon as possible.
