Justice is show biz.

Everyone has breathed a sigh of relief at the death sentences passed on the 4 " rapists " who are actually brutal murderers because the young victim died a most hideous death. However, there is no guarantee that these subhumans are actually going to hang. Their lawyer is certainly going to appeal and our judges are brimming over with the milk of human kindness for criminals but have little sympathy for victims. A recent 2 judge bench of the Supreme Court said," Poverty, socio-economic, psychic compulsions, undeserved adversities of life are thus some of the mitigating factors, in addition to those indicated in Bachan Singh and Machi Singh cases." This concerns a tailor who killed his wife and 2 children with a pair of scissors because he could not afford to feed them. " A change of heart is discernible from the fact that he had given water to the injured daughter. After this he no longer used the weapon for finishing her. He tried once again by taking her to his lap and stifling her with the aid of a pillow," said the justices. How is it a change of heart if he tries to smother his own daughter instead of stabbing her? If they visit a morgue the justices would learn that a person is equally dead whether stabbed or choked. They did not ask the man why, if he could not afford it, did he breed 3 children. In other countries parole maybe granted at the end of a sentence for good behavior and genuine remorse but in India not only are murderers allowed to be pampered in hospitals without any illness but they are allowed out on parole to nurse their mothers. If they go around drinking in nightclubs then so what? Thus Manu Sharma, murderer of Jessica Lall, was out for one month whooping it up and Amarmani Tripathi, murderer of Madhumita Sharma, was holding darbars in a hospital in Gorakhpur. Not just the judges but our press also actively conspire to protect dastardly criminals. The fifth rapist was 17 years old in December when the crime was committed. He was the most brutal and disemboweled the victim with an iron rod, leading to her death. The media kept referring to him as a " juvenile " and he has been given a laughable 3 years in prison. Yet Ruchika Girhotra was consistently referred to as a " teenager ", when she was only 14 years old, when molested. This was clearly done to protect Rathore from a charge of pedophilia because a 19 year old is also a " teenager " but is an adult. When the system protects criminals innocents die.
