The inevitable has happened. The Indian law was too slow so he decided to take it on and kill himself.

Another form of an encounter or quick justice for what he did. The nation would not mind . the others involved may also follow suit. Will it impact all those rogues who still make New Delhi an unsafe place.

Finally Accused realises the crime and punished himself. Our Law doesn't though there are many learned lawyers, tainted Policemen and experience politicians do not realise it till now and will allow them to flee by changing their names/identity, will try this case for at least 10 years and make the people unhappy and insecured by all means.... Whole lot of taxpayers money will be wasted on this proceedings without any result....

Question arise is it Suicide or Murder inside Tihar Jail ?

Good that the scum is dead....However, the others also should follow his path and save the judiciary its time and the victims family the pain of the case being dragged on and on... maybe some of the convicts themselves can knock these vermin off.

GOD justice come faster than our justice system............but surely suicide in Tihar speak a lot story....... I m sure one by one all five will do the same.

It is good. At least we will save taxpayers money to go through the process of deciding on his crime and punishment. Others accused should also follow his example. The under-age one needs to be shot at his ....... though.
