“This was a ghastly crime and the law has been broken, we will investigate the case,” Bassi said.

He said they were filing a first information report (FIR) on the basis of media reports over the documentary.

The documentary by British filmmaker Leslee Udwin has kicked up a storm for interviewing Mukesh Sharma, who is among the six men who raped the Dec 16, 2012 victim on board a moving bus.

The convict said the girl should not have “resisted” while being raped.
