These days, there are big debates on TV and headlines of national dailies are filled regarding the fame encounter of shorabbuddin and hgis wife kaushar. some so called secular media friends are projecting three police officials as the biggest villains they have ever reported and projecting shorabbuddin as an innocent. On the other hand few tv channels are symphathetic towards police officials and highlighting the police records of shorabbudin. For an ordinary viewer like me it is very hard to understand the message from media.
I was trying to understand the root cause of the problem that why police needs to do these fake encounters. One side, terrorists are free to kill any civilian and they know that there chances to get caught by police are hardly 20% and even then if police catch them, they are going to live long another 15 years in Indian jails( read it takes ten years to get the final verdict from lower court to supreme court and then another five years for mercy petition hearing by our government and the president).
On the other hand, police officials play very safe. First of all they hardly takes any risk to catch a terrorist because there are chances for them also to get killed in this effort. If someone dares to put his life at stake and catch a terrorist, again the same botheration of waiting 15 years to convict that terrorist and collecting the proofs to prove him terrorist because in the mean time human right activist also come into picture.
Then what is the solution. The solution is that, we must ensure the speedy trials of the cases. Justice delayed means justice denied. At the same time I know it from media that when courts are asked for speedy justice, they blame it to the lack of resources like shortage of staff and other infrastructure. Who provides the infrastructure? That is government elected by us. Why government do not provide the infrastructure. They say they do not have sufficient funds. Is it true? No.
Our politicians have sufficient funds to distribute free tv sets, unemployment allowance, caste based financial aid, free electricity, loan waiving-off and increase seats in imm/iits to ensure caste bases quota but no money for courts efficiency. That is your& my money by which politicians are running their political business and we looks helpless.
Why we looks helpless. It is due to the fact that we give taxes out of compulsion but do not give votes because it is not our compulsion. This is the point where we get defeated. All my blogs will provoke you to do something on the highlighted issue and if you want to do it then come on join me. We can do something by getting together.
Before closing, I would add something regarding the fate of these three police officials. Form the initials reports, it seems that these officials have done something wrong in this encounter. If it is true, then they deserve some mercy from our government looking at their service to the nation in past excluding this particular case and the track record of the person killed.. We have that much kind politicians like farook abdulla, gulam nabi azad and all secular congress people, left friends who can get symphathetic towards their own probable killer like afjal then why not any mercy for these police officials. Let the family of the victim get compensated by these officials itself as a punishment to them
That is indeed a very good one. However it is nothing strange about the fake encounter and killing. The indian army have killed too many people in northeast on pretend of fake encounter…. this is first time i learn in india big city.
really concern one
have you ever why these intelligent human beings become terrosits in the first place. Did bush &blair pause over their breakfast during theit famed AWE & SHOCK. dID YOU ?
This is possibly the most important issue in our society today. These cops were not staging encounters to kill terrorists.. may be that is how they started… but over a period they became mercenaries..”guns for hire”. As a society we cant allow this… see my post on this subject..
Our system doesn”t allow terrorists like Afjal Guru to be hanged. Therefore, our system has to tolerate fake encounters of criminals.
This requires a long debate & an overhauling of the entire system
ok brother you are doing very good job i am always with you everytime and on any moment.
We all wish to serve Mother India in our own way! Post Independence, India has been a country of people who have all the rights and no duties! We, the people, have to learn to be responsible, rise as a country against all kind of barbaric motivation, including religion, visions of corrupt justice, crooked politics and a despotic police force! Prudent Indian is right, 200%!
Let us do not jump the gun,just as media is doing.Fake or not,justified or not,who is guilty or who is not…there are questions and end less questions…let the courts decide.I do get the ”essence” of your despondency regarding the judicial process,BUT may I remind you it does not end at the ”judicial” verdict alone,it goes further.Only if some ”influential” section of “Politically Motivated” media had any respect for law,Afzal would have been with his God,by now.As for DENSON,I agree with you that justice delayed is justice denied,nevertheless my friend do read the media with a”sack full of sorts”.For ANMOL,I disagree with your point that NM wanted to be in limelight.You”re observation is off the mark.I may guess you have not read the other side still.How about to start with scanning some posts of mine and should you need any clarification on any point any time do mail me.Let us not forget “every coin has two sides”.anil.
Dear friend you are partially right & wrong towards the end. Look delayed justice cannot be compensated for by encounters. And in no way can you justify kauserbi being held captive (possibly raped as per news) in a farm house & then being done away with. Yes if it was done for the better part of the poor society I would still second it but here it is a clear case of murdering someone who was hinderance to the relative of the tainted politician in the news.
I never thought those encounter’’s were “FAKE”, but we can say pousposely done by Gujarat police. Mr. Modi wanted to be in limelightof media maybe, can”t explain the real reason, but now I think we r wasting our time on this issue…
