New Delhi, Jan 1: "We want justice". The cry continued to resonate on day one of the New Year Tuesday as hundreds braved the biting cold and gathered near Jantar Mantar in the heart of the capital to demand justice for the 23-year-old gang-rape victim and stricter legislation against rape and other crimes against women.
A crowd, of about 800-1,000 people, stretched out for about a quarter kilometre on the road leading to the ancient observatory that has become the centrepoint of the protests.
People had started gathering from early morning to pay tribute to the physiotherapy intern, who was cremated Sunday, exactly two weeks after a trip to see a movie with a friend resulted in brutal gang-rape and torture.
