Veteran Malayalam lyricist Sreekumaran Thampi has come out to hail the investigation team that shot and killed all four accused in the case in which a lady vet in Hyderabad was raped, killed and charred.

On his Facebook page, he writes:

“I congratulate the police team who gunned and killed those cruel human killers who had raped a lady doctor and charred her body to death.

Whether the encounter was deliberate or not, what happened was totally apt. At a time, when atrocities against women and children are on the rise, this is the most ideal method of punishment.

There should be no more Nirbhaya killers and Govindachamis who a lead comfy and healthy life in jails and make an easy escape from the hands of law with the help of wily lawyers.”
