#DELHI CRIME EPISODES SERIES#
Other antagonists pop up in a series devoted to the conceit that the passion of the Delhi Police drove the investigation and resulted in the arrests of five adult men and one juvenile. This question has been asked of rape survivors too.ĭelhi Crime has no shortage of villains, so the decision to make one out of Akash (Sanjay Bishnoi) is a troubling aspect of an otherwise tautly staged, superbly performed and emotionally involving narrative. Why didn’t Akash defend himself even though he was physically capable, the police officer wonders. One of the investigating officers too airs his suspicions about Akash’s character.Īkash becomes a sideshow villain, bearing some of the blame for the incident itself and its repercussions. He is named Akash in the series, and is described disparagingly by the first arrested rapist. Her boyfriend who was with her that night survived the attack. The woman who was brutalised on a bus died of her injuries 13 days later.
The names of all the characters have been changed. The series is available in English and Hindi on Netflix (Laurence Bowen and Toby Bruce have been credited alongside Richie Mehta, and the Hindi dialogue is by Samyukta Chawla Shaikh). The horrific nature of the crime shook Delhi and the country, renewed the debate on capital punishment for rapists and resulted in new laws being framed to deal with sexual assault. His voice trembling, he puts out on a call on the wireless, setting into motion a manhunt for the rapists before they erase their traces.ĭelhi Crime is a fictionalised version of the police investigation into the gang-rape of a physiotherapy intern in Delhi on December 16, 2012. The Delhi Police constable on duty is deeply moved by what he has seen and heard. I think my innards are hanging out of my body, she manages to say. The woman tells the doctor that she was raped and a metal rod was plunged deep inside her. They are rushed to hospital, and gruesome details are revealed. Created and directed by Richie Mehta, the seven-episode series opens with the discovery of an injured couple huddled by the road in Delhi on a cold December night. The Netflix original series Delhi Crime cuts to the chase.
