But I think all will be having same POV regarding this and all are frustrated with BBC about this pathetic action
News Delhi HC stays telecast of film on Nirbhaya; MIB asks channels not to show excerpts
- Thread starter Deepu
- Start date
It should not have been banned in first case ... That gives unnecessary attention ...
By telecasting this people would have seen what those lawyers and rappers actually are as human ... (Pure Evil as they projected themselves) ... So I think it's loss of India trying to bring down this documentary ... I think it should have been aired ...as nirbhaya parents too had no objection

Yup. That was my point. If everyone would have watched it then there will have been a bigger protest to ban BBC in India and sack the bloody lawyers of rapists.

It won't happen like that. Anyone watching this will have anger has their heart instead of fear.

Yup since Girls parents themselves comes with open mind then it shouldn't impacted much but yes we have to watch what those vakeels and that rapist have to say even if anyone wants to kill them they can't now since those 3 bloody idiots become world famous and their point of view become our point of view.

Why focus on India when gender discrimination and rape is a global issue?
It was not the horrific rape that made me come to India. The extraordinary, courageous and unprecedented protests that followed made me think: “My God, they are fighting for my rights in India.” I was so grateful. I have myself been raped. It is not surprising -- one in five women globally have been raped. So I am one of the 20 per cent.
The supreme irony is that my film has got statistics at the end of it of offences against women in every country in the world. By their ban, the government forced the BBC version, and not the India version, to be leaked onto YouTube. If you ban something, the first thing you do is to make every person in the world see a pirated version. And that is what has happened. The tragedy for me is that the pirated copy that went up on YouTube does not have the global statistics, and for a reason that is mundane and ridiculous. The BBC Storyville has a house style that doesn’t allow them to put statistics on a film. It upsets and angers me that people in India would have seen the film without those statistics.
There are three version of the film. In the BBC version, the credits are shorter and there are no statistics. The international version is the full version with all the credits and the statistics. It also names the rape victim, as her name is all over the international media, and even in Wikipedia. The third is the Indian version in which the victim has not been names. That is the law in India, which we all respect. The parents wanted her name out of the Indian version but agreed that it be carried in the international version.
So now the YouTube version has got so many heads that I am trying every day to cut them down with a sword. My team has pulled down the online version thousands of times because I want to obey that ban, as it is India’s law. But unfortunately it has now got into Torrent.

Today I saw that Nirbhaya documentary and was so shocked to hear that from their parents about Nirbhaya's ambition also the accused has no fear or no shame in what he has done and he said very boldly that if at all it would had happened today the girl would have been killed and we have kept her alive that son of a b***h doesn't have any shame in saying that and how horrible they were they took out the girls intestine how cruel are these bastards and their lawyer too are a** holes if they are blaming that girl and that boy and are giving bashan on Indian culture and society so I was also surprised that how come BBC was allowed to do that now its time for govt to take some action against BBC

So, BBC was all set to follow the Law of Land and hide victim name in Indian version but Govt banned it before it could have been aired ?
