Nirbhaya s mother AshaDev

New Delhi:  Nirbhaya's mother Asha Devi’s long waiting for justice came to end after seven years, with the hanging of four convicts in Tihar jail early morning today. 

Nirbhaya's mother, with baited breath to see the day when finally her daughter's rapists would be hanged, could not contain her satisfaction when the confirmation of hanging of four convicts in the gang rape and murder case came in a little after 5.35 a.m. on Friday.

Speaking to media personnel waiting outside her residence, she expressed satisfaction that justice was finally delivered saying her faith in the judiciary had been vindicated.

"Our fight for security of daughters across the country will continue" she said. "I returned from the Supreme Court, hugged my daughter's photograph and told her: 'Today, justice has been delivered'."

"I dedicate this day — March 20 to all the women in the country because #Nirbhaya got justice, today," she said.

"Proud to be known as Nirbhaya's mother. She fought so hard. And I have waited long to see this day. The flaw in our justice system were exposed. But finally all four were hanged in one go. A first of its kind of justice, which will definitely be a lesson to others."

She said she will continue this struggle for other daughters in the country and remembered all the unfulfilled dreams of her child.

Friday morning's hanging of the four convicts brings to an end the seven year quest for justice by the parents of the young girl who was brutally gang raped by six persons in Delhi, in December 2012.
