This guy looks like such a creep !! I am really proud of these girls to speak up about this horrible crime . Sexual abuae is such a taboo subject for people of Indian origin . I am sure there are so many victims that will be able to stand up against their abuser after hearing about this .. I hope this idiot gets what is coming to him . I feel so sorry for his victims and family !
