Langer responded back with a strongly-worded message. "Taunting me with suicide is shameful. Think of the families that suffer because of this tragedy and you have reduced their plight to a joke," Mayanti Langer posted on Twitter. "I hope bullying us made you feel better about yourselves, cause otherwise was it really worth it."
