NO! STAND TAKEN BY MIRWAIS FAROOQ OF HURIAT CONFERENCE IS CORRECT. THE GUILTY SHOULD BE PUNISHED AND GIVEN STRINGENT PUNISHMENT BUT THAT SHOULD NOT BE USED AS EXCUSE TO HOUND OUT THE INNOCENTS. THIS ISSUE IS BEING USED BY PRO-PAKISTAN LOBBY TO A LARGE EXTENT TO GET THEIR HIDDEN WISHES FULFILLED. AS 1984 RIOTS WERE NOT JUSTIFIED JUST BECAUSE A SIKH HAS MURDERED PRIME MINISTER OF A COUNTRY BY SAME TOKEN GILANI CAN NOT ASK NON-KASHMIRI LABOURERS TO GO OUT. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD THE INCIDENT INVOLVED KISHMIRI LOCAL YOUTHS? THIS HAS TO BE TREATED AS JUST CASE OF RAPE AND CRIMINALS TO BE PUNISHED FOLLOWING DUE COURSE OF LAW. LAW SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN IN HAND OR ELSE THERE WILL NOT BE ANY GOVERNENCE. -P.D.KULKARNI
