The cruelest form of evil is harming an innocent child. What is happening to the world we live in??? These people should be given the most severe punishment there is! Where are we heading as humanity?
Shaken to my core.#JusticeforAsifa— Anushka Sharma (@AnushkaSharma) April 12, 2018
It chokes me to know that such monsters exist in the form of humans!! Makes me sick!! Justice must be served NOW and we need a change..a punishment that scares the SH*T out of anyone who even thinks of committing such an inhuman crime in the future! Enough! #JusticeforAsifa

How many more children like baby Asifa will be sacrificed at the intersect of religion & politics? How many more children will have to suffer unimaginable crimes before we wake up? I’m disgusted. It’s time for swift action. We owe it to Asifa and to humanity. #justiceforAsifa.
