 Bahadur was satisfied with the decision , " Out of seven accused , five have been given death sentences . This will send a strong message to the public that law is greater than the khap . " However , he was disappointed that " the leader [ Ganga Raj ] got away with death penalty because he intentionally disappeared during the killing . " Narendra said , " We will appeal in High Court for death penalty to the main accused , Ganga Raj . We respect the court 's decision but he should be punished so that the instigators of the crime get the punishment . Also it is important that it is a very clear message so that no khap gives such directions , ever . " Seema seconded Narendra 's concerns , " We would have been happier if the main accused was also given the death sentence . The decision of the panchayat was not justified and people should not to be allowed to misuse their power . We have fought this battle alone when no one was supporting us . " She requested more security for her family , " They tried to bribe us to withdraw the case then they threatened that they would kill us if we didn 't withdraw the FIR . Even after the decision we 're afraid of a backlash from the Khap Panchayat . "
