Doctor wants to be the hangman of nirbhaya rapists

Speaking to Deccan Chronicle, Dr Radhakrishna said that the execution must not be delayed because there was no executioner.

Vijayawada: In keeping with the extreme reactions that are being touted as a solution to the rape and murder of the Hyderabad veterinarian last month, a doctor has offered to be the executioner of the convicts in the Nirbhaya case.

He has offered himself as a candidate to Union home minister Amit Shah on Twitter, when he came to know that there was no executioner at Tihar jail to hang the convicts in the rape case that had horrified the country in 2012.

Vijayawada YSRC Doctors cell leader Dr Ambati Naga Radhakrishna tweeted that it was reported in the press that prison authorities were looking for executioners to execute the men convicted in the Nirbhaya case. He stated in his tweet that though he is a professional doctor, he is ready to become an executioner with the intention of bringing peace to Nirbhaya’s soul, and would do so at his own expense.

Speaking to Deccan Chronicle, Dr Radhakrishna said that the execution must not be delayed because there was no executioner. To retain belief in the justice system, it is very important to implement the Supreme Court orders immediately as the President of India has rejected the clemency petition, the doctor said.
