Fw: Fwd: How many could be punished for killing thousands in Punjab

The seriousness with which custodial crimes need to be taken by the indian Courts ,is missing .That is the reason that the figures qouted in 2004-2005 , report of National Human Rights Commission of India raise an alarm bell on the sordid affairs in this regard. The NHRC has reported 136 deaths in Police custody and 1357 deaths in Judicial custody in that year,so you can say that EVERY DAY  IN INDIA 4 PEOPLE LOOSE THEIR LIVES ,WHILE THEY ARE IN CUSTODY.

 

Its not only this In Punjab the police officials who even are convicted in custodial crimes and are on bail from he appellate courts ,during their pendency of appeal are posted on duty . One such officer namely Ravinder Kumar Sharma DSP is posted at Bhikhiwind ,while he has been convicted and remained behind the bars for 3 years.So in Punajab such officers are rewarded with plum postings.

Death Penalty and Denial of Justice

The mass hysteria generated at the mention of national security is what the counter intelligence agencies and the Governments thrive on. Why are we not equally appaled at revelations of torture by the police officials? At the mention of a person going to gallows without having recourse to free and fair trial and without a lawyer to represent him? Why dont we ask questions as to why we dont know the whole unadulterated truth of "terrorist attacks" and of the "the encounters." All this leands to one direction, in Indian democracy information is manufactured to suit the purposes of the regimes. Regimes which have more to hide in their anti terrorist operations have no regard or sanctity for human life. They are willing to sacrifice their own citizens with the help of security agencies and intelligence agencies. It is a matter of grave concern and we need to be vigilant and work against it.
