'Not sorry Ram Singh died, but he should have been hanged publicly'

The brother of the 23-year-old Delhi gangrape victim today said that he had been surprised to learn of prime accused in the case, Ram Singh, committing suicide in Tihar Jail but said that he deserved the death penalty. “I was slightly surprised when I heard the news. But Ram Singh was aware that there was strong evidence against him and that he was going to get the death penalty,” the woman’s brother, whose name cannot be revealed, told CNN-IBN. Ram Singh, one of the main accused in the horrific gangrape case which caused massive social outrage, committed suicide by hanging himself in a Tihar jail cell this morning.

All other accused in the case should get death sentence,” he said. The victim’s brother said that Ram Singh must have felt guilty about the incident because he “did a wrong thing by hurting an innocent person in such a brutal manner”. “If someone wants to commit suicide they will do it anyway, so we cannot blame anyone,” he said.
