In the case of arrests for crimes planned or in the process of implementation or actual execution in any civilised society the police are expected to put them behind bars. No one except fascist forces plan to execute people because they are alleged to have planned or committed crimes without them having the right to prove their innocence in a court of law.
In this article several inept attempts have been made to subtly show such cold blooded murders in good light and then they are condemned in words - showing duplicity right down the middle of this column.
However even if Shorabuddin was a petty criminal there was no reason to execute him by claiming he was an LeT operative especially when there are people with much much more blood on their hands like the Sangh Parivaris - those whose inflammatory speeches have caused loss of life and limb and spilt innocent blood of minorities whose only crime is not be falling in their foolish definition of Indian.
I do not support such fascists thoughts. I am only pointing out that if you are right then the major criminals should be eliminated first.
