Ishrat Jahan was murdered in cold blood in police custody in Ahmedabad while her mother and six siblings in Mumbai waited for her to return home. Four human lives and a false claim was all that took for winning some promotions and awards, the actual intent behind staging the encounter.
While probe hangs between Headley’s assertion and Special Investigation Team’s findings, many serious doubts linger on police’s credibility. An institution endowed with such powers can never be trusted when the rich and influential offenders walk free but a common man is qualified as an easy target.
It’s about time when the idea that such incidents cannot just be shrugged off, should sink in our minds. An organ of the machinery, that our nation is, is going cripple. It’s imperative that it be repaired before it brings the whole system down.
