The sentence below is from TODAY newspaper. It is from New Delhi. It is in relation to a rape victim who was studying to become a physiotherapist.<br/><br/>Her dad said, "If they <u>are</u> not hanged, it <u>will</u> be a shame for everyone in New Delhi."<br/><br/>Shouldn't it be <u>were</u> and <u>would</u> as it seems a hypothetical sentence?<br/><br/>Thanks.
