Tollywood’s latest connection to Indian politics, actress turned TMC MP Mimi Chakraborty has lent her full support to Jaya Bachchan who has said rapists have to be publicly lynched and it’s the only immediate punishments which can deter sexual predators. “I agree with her. I don’t think we need to take the rapists to courts with protection and then wait for justice. Immediate punishment is needed,” said the Bengali actress.
Now, Mimi has said, “I agree with her. I don’t think we need to take the rapists to courts with protection and then wait for justice. Immediate punishment is needed.” The latest statement from the Bengali actor comes amid nationwide criticism over the rape and murder of a 26-year-old veterinarian in Hyderabad.
The actor-turned-politician also stressed on stricter laws to identify potential rapists. “I request all concerned ministers to please make a law so strong that a person thinks 100 times before, let alone rape, but even before looking at a woman with ill-intentions,” she said.
