Nirbhaya convicts asked to avail their final family meeting

The Tihar Jail authorities have written to the four death row convicts in the Nirbhaya gang rape and murder case regarding their final meeting with their families.

This comes 10 days ahead of March 3 — the date set for the execution of the four death row convicts in the 2012 gang rape and murder case.

“Given in writing to the four accused about their final meeting with the family. Informed Mukesh and Pawan that they have already availed the final meeting. Asked Akshay and Pawan to indicate their date of the final meeting. Apart from this the regular meetings of twice a week is continuing for all of them,” a senior jail official said.

A Delhi court on February 17, ordered that the four death row convicts in the Nirbhaya gang rape and murder case will be hanged “by the neck until they are dead” on March 3 at 6 a.m. after observing that deferring the execution any further would be sacrilegious to the victim’s rights.
