Gangrape: Body lay waiting at Singapore airport as govt, family differed on where to fly

New Delhi, Dec 31: The mortal remains of Delhi's 23-year-old gangrape victim could have arrived 3 hours earlier, but the Centre wanted the body to be flown either to Kolkata or Varanasi, instead of Delhi,


In foggy weather, the plane landed, the Prime Minister and Congress president Sonia Gandhi were present at the airport, and the body was rushed to the victim's residence, where after religious rites were carried out, it was cremated in Dwarka, even before the veil of fog had lifted over Delhi, a time when most of the Delhiites were deep in slumber.
