JUSTICE FOR JESSICA or Hang THE MATOO MURDERER
I have been hearing this for a while now, then the Nithari Case, where Mr Pandher was bashed up by the Lawyers....
We want the criminals Punished. but why do we give the judgement before the court actually does..
We convict the under trials much before into criminals, before the court actually gives its verdict.
For Instance a big News Channel suddenly took up the case of in search of Bitty Mohanty, who jumped Parole, after being convicted by a fast track court. We were all praising the fast verdict.. but have we thought was the verdict too fast..
Was Bitty Actually framed.. why would a German tourist go with him from Delhi to Ajmer, stay in the same Hotel room.. and then after few days accuse him of rape..
i am not trying to be a chauvinist here .. but its easy to black mail a man when he has slept with some body, with the new DNA tests, he can be hold to ransom as he is very vulnerable to be accused of Rape when it was consensual sex.
Some where down the line we have forgotten to think and are to gullible to what media states...
Mr Pandher again had to face the wrath of the lawyers, and was beaten blue .. while still in trial.. is that fair.. he is not even proven guilty, actually the first series of Narco tests can actually acquit him.. but no media says he is a killer.. so let us kill him.. Wait a min here, I am no way defending what he did, thats in human, and i will be one of the first to demand his head if proven guilty.
Going back to the old Jessica and Matoo case, what if the accused are actually innocent, what if Ram Jethmalanis statement of dual bullet was actually true, why will a an fire to rounds of shot for asking a drink, when the first shot fired in the air, wont he give enough time for the waitress to react and may be out of fear get him his drink, hence shooting her immediately sounds a bit rusty..
But the media had a huge effect, on the case.. not only media but the people in general.. but did we think about the pros and cons of the case.
In Matoo case with no new evidence available to the High Court, pronounced Mr Singh guilty, out of sheer media, hype, while he was acquitted by the lesser court for lack of substantial evidence. Not only was he proved guilty , but also was given the capital punishment, which now has been stayed by the SC for Lack of Substantial Evidence.
The under trails only become convicts when they are adjudged so by the court, we some how driven by the media, do not give the under trails a fair chance under article 32 of the Indian Constitution as a part of the fundamental right to constitutional remedies.
we adjudge some as terrorist and some as murderers, they might be so. but some might just be being framed... and we kill them to.
so next time please leave the thinking to your self and do not allow the media to think for you.

okey. so you have decided to attack our politics driven media houses.
now, coming back to your post.....
jessica and mattoo cases were entirely different....than your pandher or bitti mohanty cases. in the former cases, there were enough circumstantial evidences.....and even eye witnesses to the case. but the power and influence of the wealthy accused, managed to malign the case in the lower courts. what with an eye witness (a certain Munshi) deciding to change his stand under some influence??? this is when the media came in and rightly so.....
and about bitti case......if you think he was not given a fair trial by the court.....he could have fought that battle from within the court itself......jumping the parole is not an option.....its very unlawful.
pandher case, well, i do not know how can these so called educated lawyers do that.....and more surprising is, nothing happened to those law keepers who broke the law in front of the law court.
bisu.
