Lets ignore the fact that the dead man was muslim (since that seems to be the hot-button issue here). Let's say he was, let's pick a name, Rajendra Nikhalje. An extortionist, drug dealer, whatever. Is it OK if the police shoot him in a fake encounter, without trying to arrest him or take him to court? Are you suggesting that it is OK for the police to kill people it decides are guilty of extortion? What if you are falsely implicated of a murder you didnt commit? Is that still OK?
Trying to find out what people really think. Cuz IMHO, the real issue is an extra judicial killing - the police cannot dispense justice instantly (it isnt Judge "I am the law" Dredd). Me thought that was the job of the courts.
(Courts are slow is not an excuse BTW. The solution is to make the courts fast, not transfer court powers to the police).
