Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Monday reprimanded the lawyers who reportedly prevented the police from filing charge sheet into the rape-and-murder of eight-year-old girl Asifa Bano at a court in Kathua.

Taking to the social networking site Twitter Omar wrote: “Shame on them & their political masters. An 8-year-old girl is raped & murdered and these so-called lawyers do not want to see justice delivered.”

Omar Abdullah added,“Lawyers in #Kathua Jammu tried to stop the J&K Police Crime Branch from filing a charge sheet in the case of the rape & murder of an 8 yr old girl but some “news” channels are happier reporting outside a Chola bhatura shop.”

Earlier, reports had said that lawyers prevented Crime Branch of Jammu and Kashmir Police from filing charge sheet into gang-rape and murder of the nomad girl.

Asifa went missing on January 10, from her Rasana home and her blood-drenched corpse was recovered on January 17.
