“All I want from the government and the authorities is that either they should be hanged or they should be shot dead, like what happened near Hyderabad. I am not greedy. I don’t want any house to be made. I don’t want anything else,” the father was quoted as saying by NDTV.

The victim’s brother said that she told him that she wanted “to see the men dead”.
“My sister said, ‘please save me, I want to see them dead’. I said we will save you. But we couldn’t. My sister is no more with us, my only demand is that the five accused deserve death and nothing less. That’s all we wish for,” he said.

The men took her outside her village and into the fields and doused her in petrol before setting her on fire.

As per reports, after the incident with burn injuries, she took a bystander’s mobile phone and called the emergency help number and police herself.
