GIRLS NAME OUT, CLAMOUR GROWS.
GIRLS NAME OUT, CLAMOUR GROWS
The handwringing over masking the identity of the Delhi Rape
victim turned largely academic today after two British tabloids published her
name and her father led his village in demanding disclosure in India.The father’s
call was based on premise that the disclosure of identity would
earn her a rightful place in “history”,helping
her become an “inspiration” to all female. shortly after the UK tabloids
conducted an interview in which the father named her( the surname did not
appear to be completely right), the demand to do the similar in India went
viral on social media.No reaction was immediately available from the government of India, which has so far refuse to
disclose the person's name despite Union minister Shashi Tharoor suggesting the
victim be honoured by naming the revised rape laws after her with her family’s
permission. Reuters, however, quoted public prosecuter Rajiv Mohan as saying : “Even
if family members have given their permission to disclose the victim’s identity
for a greater cause we can’t disclose her name, following Section 228A of the Indian Penal code that
bans the publications of a rape victim’s name on pain of a jail term of up to
two years.
