The brutal assault and death of a nomadic woman in Srinagar’s Nishat on May 4, 2025, by four intoxicated men is a vile attack on humanity. Such reckless violence must be eradicated.
We praise the Srinagar Police for swiftly arresting Suhail Bashir Bhat, Adil Ali Bhat, Firdous Ahmad Rather, and Suhail Afzal Bhat, registering FIR No. 35/2025. This decisive action bolsters public trust and vows accountability.
Yet, arrests are only the first step. The judiciary must ensure swift, transparent justice to punish and deter. This crime, linked to substance abuse and targeting a vulnerable woman, demands societal action—curbing violence and protecting marginalized groups.
The Nishat tragedy urges us to reject complacency and build a just society. The victim’s memory demands nothing less.
