"They are extremely cruel people who don't deserve to live," Kanhaiya Lal's son said about the two killers.
Murdered Udaipur tailor Kanhaiya Lal's son Yash today said his father would still be alive had the state administration provided him proper security when he was receiving threats. Demanding death by hanging for the killers "as soon as possible", he said tensions are unlikely to dissipate until the two killers are hanged.
Speaking to NDTV, he said the accused shouldn't be given food on the taxpayer's money after their gruesome crime. "They are extremely cruel people who don't deserve to live," he said.
On whether religious extremism was the cause for his father's killing, he said it does seem like it's on the rise. On the social media post in support of now suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma who made objectionable comments on Prophet Muhammad, he said none of the family members was aware of it and even Kanhaiya Lal never mentioned it himself.
Yash is the eldest son and will now shoulder the responsibility of the household. He said a government job would ease his burden and help him greatly.
