They raised slogans demanding justice and expressed anger over the alleged crime committed by the accused, Vikram. Some protesters demanded that the accused be shown to them and punished immediately. the protesters also sought an audience with her to seek assurances and clarification While the victim’s parents were waiting to meet the CP. The residents expressed disbelief at the police’s claim that Vikram Kumar alone had committed the murder. “The other security guard, whose SIM card Vikram used to call the girl’s family members for ransom, should also be held accountable. How did the security guard on duty allow Vikram to enter the premises, knowing fully well that he had already been terminated by their security agency?’’ a resident asked during the protest. During the press meet, the CP admitted that the incident had undoubtedly caused concern among residents of gated communities in city. “This incident has proved that access control systems for entry and exit, as well as the presence of security personnel at gated communities, cannot assure safety.
