350 pages into the #Tejpal judgement I've already decided that if I'm ever raped or sexually assaulted (a possibility every Indian woman factors into her life), I will never report it.
I'm amazed by the illogical arguments. You say you told about the assault to friends but actually they are not that close to you, so you lied abt ur closeness.
Anyway their testimony is not good quality because they were your & your husband's friends.

Isolating one Muslim name to use violence against women as fodder for communal scaremongering (100s of tweets saying "keep Hindu daughters safe from Muslims" etc) DIVERTS attention from the real solutions to prevent violence against women. #Priyankareddy #JusticeForPriyankaReddy
The #Priyankareddy case is reminiscent of the 16 Dec 2012 case, where we may remember a driver Ram Singh and various helpers were found guilty. We didn't blame Ram Singh's caste or community - we shouldn't blame the community to which accused belong
