Convicts' lawyer mocked me, said hanging postponed till eternity: Nirbhaya's mother

She alleged that the convicts' lawyer AP Singh pointed fingers at her and told her that the hangings will get postponed till eternity.

Soon after a local court in Delhi postponed the hanging of the four convicts in the 2012 Delhi gangrape case, Nirbhaya's mother Asha Devi broke down outside the court and said her hopes have been dashed.

She alleged that the convicts' lawyer AP Singh pointed fingers at her and told her that the hangings will get postponed till eternity.

Asha Devi said she will continue her fight till the convicts in the 2012 gangrape and murder case are hanged. She told reporters that her "hopes are dashed" but she will continue her fight till the convicts are hanged.

"Mujrimom ke vakeel AP Singh ne mujhe aaj anguli dikha kar challenge kiya ki ye faasi ab anant kaal tak tal gayi hai (Today, the convicts AP Singh pointed fingers at me and challenged me that he will get the hangings to be postponed till eternity)," Nirbhaya's mother told reports outside the court.
