NL@13: When Abhinandan Sekhri interviewed ML Sharma, the defence lawyer in Nirbhaya case

Asking uncomfortable questions, pushing people in power into a corner, holding others accountable – Newslaundry has been doing all of this and more for 13 years now.

And since we’re now officially a teenager, the plan is to get more combative and disruptive. No one will get a pass.

Then again – have we ever really gone easy on anyone?

On our 13th birthday, we are re-releasing an old interview from 2015 when Abhinandan Sekhri sat down to agree with ML Sharma, the defence lawyer in the Nirbhaya gang-rape case. 

The two found absolutely nothing to agree on. In fact, everything went in the opposite direction. 

Sharma talked about what he believes is the root cause of rape, but we were far from convinced. Watch how Newslaundry challenged Sharma’s gyaan on how women should behave or what qualifies as a sexual pass.
