Bilkis Bano, survivor of the 2002 Gujarat riots, expressed relief and gratitude after the Supreme Court ruled that the 11 men responsible for her family's killing and her gangrape must return to jail, criticizing the Gujarat government's decision to release them for "good behaviour" as "without application of mind." She thanked the court for vindication and hope in the promise of equal justice for all women, and expressed concern about the risk to her security posed by their release.
