Who Is Akku Yadav?
Akku Yadav was a serial rapist, killer, gangster, kidnapper, and also robber. He lived in the Kasturba Nagar slum. It is known that he had raped more than 40 women and also killed and tortured people. His terror was widely spread in the slums. People feared to raise their voices against him, few people who were threatened by him left the slums due to his fear.
The major reason for the fear of all the people was that he had good connections in the police department as well, as he used to bribe them. There was one lady named Asha Bhagat, who had the guts to face him. But she was also killed which broke all the hopes of the people in the slums. Akku killed his friend, Avinash Tiwari. The reason was that he used to talk to Asha even after Akku told him to not do so.
After he tried to threaten Usha Narayane, the people of the slums decided to end it, and together they raised their voices which scared Akku. He decided to go to prison, not because he was guilty of all his crimes, but because he wanted protection from the people of the slums. He was not charged with any of the crimes, the people of the slums had imposed on him which infuriated them. They decided not to leave him.
How Was Akku Yadav Killed?
On the day Akku Yadav was brought to the court, the women together went to the court. Akku saw the girl he had raped before and started to mock her which the police found funny and started to laugh. The woman threw her footwear on him. For security reasons, the police did not let the women enter the courtroom.
200-400 women were present outside the courtroom who then decided to break the glass and enter the courtroom. They did so and stabbed Akku Yadav to death. He was stabbed with the knife at least 70 times.
This incident happened at the Nagpur District Court in Vidarbha. The incident was celebrated like the festival of Dusshera in the Kasturba Nagar slums. The incident was appreciated by many people but some also stated that all the women are at fault and that they should have believed the Indian Criminal Justice System and should have waited for the court to take a decision on the punishment of Akku Yadav.
