Moments before the four-men-convicted of 2012-gang-rape and murder of a-young-medical-student known to the world as "Nirbhaya" were by a judge that they would hang at 7-am on January-22, mother of one of them begged for his life. Convict Mukesh's mother walked-up to Nirbhaya's mother in a gesture of begging, and pleaded: "Mere bete ko maaf kar do. Main uski zindagi ki bheekh maangti hoon."
