Reacting to her statement, Garima, while speaking to the media outside the court, said, “If they have been put behind the bars, then they must have committed something. Our prosecution team is strong. We have faith in the prosecution team and we are optimistic of getting justice.”

She added that Zubeen’s big mistake was that he believed and loved everyone. “Now, we have seen the faces and understood the mistake,” she added.
