“We had asked to not release the documentary, but BBC still released it, and we will investigate and the Ministry of Home Affairs will take action accordingly. The conditions have been breached so, action will be taken accordingly,” Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh said in the national capital.
The documentary, called “India’s Daughter”, carries an interview of one of the six men who had gang-raped a 23-year-old medical student on a moving bus in the national capital in December 2012, in which the death row convict blames the victim for the fatal and brutal gang-rape. The documentary has been banned in India but the BBC aired it in UK on Wednesday night. The Indian government has also launched a probe into how the filmmakers got access to Mukesh Singh who is lodged in high- security Tihar jail in the Indian capital. — Xinhua.
