Negi's wife too echoed the words of her son Gautam.
"We are very happy today, we have received justice finally after so many years now that he (Afzal) has been hanged. We have been desperately awaiting his execution but it kept on getting delayed.
"Every year when we come here (attacks anniversary), we renew our demand to hang him. Sometimes we felt he will never be hanged but today it has been done. My son too is in police so that he takes his father's legacy forward," she said.
