How innocent our judges are. Supreme Court judges were upset at a 14 page status report submitted by the Enforcement Directorate investigating black money stashed abroad by Indians. " No further information is forthcoming from you. The whole concentration is focussed only on one individual ( Hassan Ali Khan ). What about the others?" the judges asked. They said, " We would like to know what progress has been made by you in each case. We would also like to know from you on next hearing the progress made in investigation from the national security aspect and what is the source of such money which is more serious aspect." Hear, hear. All of us Indians would definitely like to know the answer to these questions. The sleuths are helpless. They are being told by their superiors not to find anything that will embarrass criminal politicians and thieving, parasitic civil servants. We certainly do not want another Bofors style comedy wherein our sleuths investigated all the hot fleshpots of the world before closing the case. The justices should keep things simple. Order the detectives to concentrate on stopovers. Go through the itineraries of all the politicians and civil servants as they fly around the world on junkets at taxpayer expense. Find out who stopped off in Switzerland, Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Cayman islands, Bermuda and so on and the picture will quickly come into focus. There will be the occasional confusion as in the World Economic Forum at Davos, which happens to be in Switzerland, but in most cases the answer will be oh so clear. We would also like to enjoy this game of hide and seek. What fun.
