Celebrities from India and Pakistan have expressed their deep sorrow over the horrible incident of the brutal rape of an eight-year-old Muslim girl Asifa in Indian Occupied Kashmir. The rape case has shook India as widespread protests erupted by the Hindu nationalists to save the culprits in the case.
Instead of sharing pictures of Asifa, share this instead. The man on the left is Sanji Ram and the man on the right is Deepak Khajuria. Together they kidnapped, drugged, gang-raped, and murdered an 8-year-old girl in Kashmir. #JusticeForAsifa pic.twitter.com/f6KqwiRBtl

According to the reports the primary reason for this heinous crime was to frighten the Muslims living in the Hindu-majority area of Indian Occupied Kashmir. Indian Prime Minister NarendraModi while delivering a speech yesterday in New Delhi and assured that the culprits will be brought to justice soon. Rahul Gandhi, leader of Indian National Congress led the midnight march to Indian Gate in Delhi to express his solidarity with the victim and demanded justice for the girl.
We have failed as a society! Being a father, I am shaken and filled with anger reading about what happened to a 8 year old kid. My heart goes out to Asifa's family. I refuse to accept we really let THIS happen. Justice has to be served NOW. #JusticeforAsifa

How many more children like baby Asifa will be sacrificed at the intersect of religion & politics? How many more children will have to suffer unimaginable crimes before we wake up? I’m disgusted. It’s time for swift action. We owe it to Asifa and to humanity. #justiceforAsifa.
