LUCKNOW: International Shooter Vartika Singh on Sunday wrote a letter in blood requesting the Centre to let her hang the rapists convicted in the Nirbhaya rape and murder case, a day before the victim’s 7th death anniversary.

In the letter, she has sought permission from Union Home Minister Amit Shah to execute the rapists. Speaking to reporters here, Singh said, “I have a letter in my hand that is written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah. I have written it with my blood. I have written that I should be allowed to execute the convicts in the Nirbhaya case. This will reinforce the concept that women are viewed as goddesses in India.”

“This message should go to the entire world. The rapists should know that in India, a woman can execute them. I have sent the letter through registered post and also tweeted it,” she added.

The shooter urged all women soldiers, actresses and public representatives to lend their support for her.

She hoped there would be a transformation in the country with a “different kind of society” where women need not live in an atmosphere of fear.
