RE:extradition
by Sudhir Athekkattil on Jul 24, 2007 09:34 AM

Haneef might have been an innocent but unfortunately some of the evidences raised by the Australian authorities were against him. And moreover, they manipulated something. He definitely deserved a fair interrogation and trial. But it is ridiculous that some people in a particular community raised this issue as a huge violation of human rights. Yes. This is. But remember, lot of people from our country are being arrested in Gulf countries for narcotic cases, prostitution, theft, murder etc.. and being either sent to jail or executed without proper investigation and trial. Recently I came to know from an interview of a former passport officer in Kerala given to a daily that fewyears back they had got some passports of some persons executed for narcotic cases sent by the authorities from a country in Persian Gulf. I feel most these people are innocent or forced to do that due to poverty. The real culprits are here in India or somewhere else. What the government has done for the families of these victims?
