Udaipur : Protests and agitations continued on friday in Banswara city as hundreds of people took out a massive rally demanding death sentence for the two accused who raped a five year old kid in Anandpuri area.

Hundreds of girls from private and government schools and colleges participated in the rally which began from Govt GuruGovind Singh college and culminated at the collectorate. Protesters said the police machinery is a failure since the accused are yet at large and the cops have failed to arrest them even after four days. Students demanded the culprits to be handed over to the public so that they could be taught a strict lesson for the heinous crime they committed. Police authorities had a tough time assuring people of a speedy probe and arrest. Residents claimed if the accused were not arrested by Monday, ‘ Banswara Bandh’ call would be made.
