Lillete Dubey has criticised a ban on a controversial documentary about the 2012 Delhi rape.

The Indian government attempted to impose a ban on the broadcast of the BBC documentary India's Daughter, in which one of the convicted rapists is interviewed and displays a flagrant absence of remorse for the heinous crime he committed.

Commenting on the ruling, Boiled Beans on Toast director told GetWestLondon: "I'm very upset the Indian government is trying to ban this documentary.

"We've condemned the act [the rape], put these men in jail and are talking about the death penalty, which I think they thoroughly deserve, and now we don't want this documentary to be seen by the world," she explained.

"It's an absolutely shocking video and I think people in India should see it."

A Delhi Court issued an injunction against the film after police in India argued it could cause a public outcry.

The BBC defied the ban and broadcast the documentary on International Women's Day.

Boiled Beans on Toast is currently on at the Watermans Arts Centre in Brentford until Sunday March 15.
