India, a criminal paradise?

Seems that a gangster, called Vikarm Paras, wanted in over 100 cases of murder, robbery and extortion, was able to escape after drugging his escort of 4 policemen at Old Delhi Railway Station. How was he able to get them to eat something laced with drugs. Not just that, he took along 4 MPS sub-machine guns that the police carried so now anyone trying to arrest him could easily be killed with the same arms. Apparently in 2012 he was able to escape after taking his escort into a clothing store by promising to buy them designer clothes. This shows that our police are 1. completely untrained, 2. so poorly paid that they are easily tempted and 3. not properly equipped to restrict a criminal during transfer. The notorious sandalwood smuggler Veerappan escaped several times from custody in spite of having killed scores of policemen. In any other country a cop killer would never be able to escape because every other policeman and woman would be looking for vengeance. A visit to any court in India will show police bringing criminals for trial, holding them by the hand, without any handcuff. Judges are brimming over with the milk of human kindness for dirty criminals but have no sympathy for victims unless forced by public opinion. Thus, Rathore, a pedophile was sentenced to a laughable one year in prison but let out after only 6 months in an insult to Ruchika Girhotra. But even after a murderer is sentenced to life in prison our kind politicians let them out for enjoyment on the most frivolous excuses. A common one is illness which cannot be diagnosed and for which Amarmani Tripathi, murderer of Madhumita Shukla, was allowed out for months. Gurbaksh Singh Kalra, convicted terrorist and killer of former Punjab Chief Minister, Beant Singh will be allowed out on parole after a hunger strike lasting 42 days. Could not have been much of a hunger strike if he is still alive after 42 days. Does the US let terrorists out from Guantanamo for refusing to eat? No. They are forced fed and kept in chains. That is why the US had no major terrorist attack after 9/11 while Indians continue to be killed regularly. However, punishment can only come after a trial. But not if you are a civil servant because the government does not allow the investigation to proceed. Thus, 20 civil servants are to go scot-free because the CBI is not allowed to investigate them regarding exporting cheap rice to African countries by private companies who charged the market rate and made windfall profits. India has to be a paradise for criminals.
