Kathua victim’s family drops lawyer

The

family of the eight-yearold Kathua rape and murder victim has decided to drop their lawyer Deepika Rajawat, as she has barely been available for court hearings, the victim’s father said.

The father told reporters on Wednesday that the case has been heard 100 times by the court so far and around 100 witnesses have been examined, but Rajawat had only appeared twice for the family.

Rajawat told media that she has been receiving death threats ever since she got linked to the case. (IANS)
