The way the whole case has been handled by Goan police is a shame and a scandal. If the mother did not protest, the police would have dismissed the case as drowning. Imagine those who are not able to get the press coverage, where do they get their justice.
It is high time, not only in Goa but for the whole of India, to carry out proper and thorough investigation and full prosecution to remove criminal elements. As an ameurish start on how to carry out investigation and to treat people with respect, the police and lawyer/judges should watch TV series such as CSI, Law & Order.
