The disgusting Arnab Goswami declares on the basis of phone calls between a number associated with the victim's family and one of the accused, that "it is a lie that she was raped". Thus, he brands the the victim, who repeatedly stated on record that she was raped, a liar.

Even if we assume the victim knew and was friendly with one of the accused - does that mean that the accused has not lured her out and had her gang raped? Not the first time it has happened. Most women are raped, killed at the hands of men they know & have trusted

Plus, as I keep saying, in rural India, it is all too common for dominant caste men to pressurise Dalit girls, women into sexually exploitative, violent situations under various pretexts. This is a village with a mere 4 Dalit households, and 400 Thakur ones.

Will "the nation" allow this apology for a human being Arnab to get away with declaring the victim of a terrible rape & murder, a liar? He should be cancelled by one and all for this act of depravity.
