Badaun (UP): Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Saturday met the two gangrape victims' family in Badaun in Uttar Pradesh. The two Dalit sisters were allegedly gangraped and were found hanging from a tree earlier this week.


He tried to console and provide emotional support to family with his encouraging conversation. Also, he assured them of complete justice with fair investigation against the rapists.

When Rahul Gandhi offered compensation to deceaseds' father, he bluntly refused. He said I want justice for my daughters, not money.
All the five main accused, including two policemen, have been arrested in connection with the gangrape and murder of two Dalit sisters here.

Constable Chhatrapal Yadav was arrested late last night and Urvesh Yadav was detained in the wee hours today, Superintendent of Police A K Saxena told PTI. 

All the five accused named in the FIR, including constables Sarvesh Yadav, Chhatrapal and three brothers Pappu Yadav, Awadhesh Yadav and Urvesh Yadav have been arrested. 

The FIR was registered against seven persons including two unnamed men after outrage over the incident. 

Taking note of the incident, Katra Sadatganj police outpost in-charge Ram Vilas Yadav was been suspended and two constables—Sarvesh and Chhatrapal—were terminated from services yesterday, Saxena said.
