"Rape survivors too should be hanged."
"Any woman whether married or unmarried, if she goes along with a man, with or without her consent, should be hanged. Both should be hanged."
"See, I dont know what context he said it in. But, at times, the wrong people are awarded the death penalty. Boys do it in josh (Hindi: excitement), but what can I say in this? The death sentence should be given. I wont speak against Islam."
"Any woman if, whether married or unmarried, goes along with a man, with or without her consent, should be hanged. Rape is punishable by hanging in Islam.

If rape happens with or without consent, it should be punished as prescribed in Islam."
