Mr. Shenoy seems unaware that every day Indian police kill people in fake encounters - and no one is punished for it. He seems to have a lot of faith in our law enforcement machinery when he believes that our police would not be exonerated. Perhaps then he can explain why hundreds of people are gunned down by the police every year and no one is ever held accountable. Get your facts straight, Shenoy- the problem here is not that police would be prosecuted but that they are never investigated at all!
Giving the police a free hand is equivalent to encouraging another form of terrorism. Shenoy should remember that these police that he trusts so much are the same corrupt, communal thugs who kill, extort and assault people year round. If they were so effective, the blasts would never have happened.
