According to court documents, the victim was given a pseudonym that meant “fearless,” She was raped, assaulted with iron rods, and suffered horrendous injuries. Two weeks later, she died in a Singapore hospital.

Her death brought attention to sexual assault in India and raised awareness about crimes against women. This case was a turning point for India and galvanized millions to demand stricter laws against sexual assault.

“After Nirbhaya, we thought things would improve, but we continue to hear about (rape) cases every day. Bhayana stated that there is never a day when we don’t hear about one. “As activists, we push and probe government and nation so hard, but when we hear about such brutality, it really makes us feel helpless.” It is beyond words.

Uddhav Thackeray was the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, of which Mumbai is its capital, and expressed shock at the “dreadful” incident.
