In India, Asifa begins the trial of rape and murder
On Monday, they were produced in a court in Srinagar for the first hearing of the case.
However, the defendants of the accused have demanded the next hearing of the case on April 28.
On January 10, after a seven-day hunger, Asifa Banu, an eight-year-old Muslim girl from a Muslim nomad, near India-ruled Kattua town in Kashmir, found her body in a jungle.
Police arrested a 19-year-old young man suspected of involvement in the assassination and murder case.
The young Asifa was kept in a temple for a week in Jabbanbandi, police said.
On the basis of his confession, seven people, including a former government official and two police officers, were arrested from the temple.
After investigating the incident, a group of lawyers barred them from the police court on the day the chargesheet was filed, police said.
The evidence against Asifa rape and murder is found against the accused, the complainants said.
Besides, two police children were washed and rafaya to destroy the evidence of the culprits.
When the protesters started becoming a Hindu, some organizations of Hindu rights groups started demanding their release, the event was again news headline when the protest began. The protest rally took place in the two BJP ministers of India's ruling party, and there was a storm of condemnation across the country.
A protest rally was held in capital Delhi, demanding the trial of Asifa Rashid and the murder, where the main opposition Congress party president Rahul Gandhi, his mother Sonia Gandhi and sister Priyanka Bhadra Gandhi took part.
Some international organizations, including the United Nations, condemned the incident. Two BJP ministers resigned in the face of nationwide protests.
Alongside, Asifa's family lawyer, Deepika Singh Rawat, has asked her to apply for the transfer of the lawsuit in a higher court, claiming that she has been threatened with life imprisonment.
After finding Asifa's body in January, the lawyer has been appealing to the court to properly investigate the incident.
On Monday, he said, "I have been threatened yesterday, 'we never ask you.' After this threat I am suffering from insecurity and want the security of my life, I have to go to the Supreme Court.
"I do not think there is a situation like the prosecutor's case."
On Monday morning, Asifa's father appealed to the Supreme Court to transfer the case to the Judicial Court in Chandigarh, according to NDTV.
