Unless we bring to book the accused who perpetrate crime on minorities rather than letting them go scot free despite strong evidence against them we will never be able to stop these senseless acts. Its like complete circle now. You target me I target you.
The criminal judicial system is India is sham. The decision of UP lawyers was politically motivated and not in accordance with the spirit of their profession.
The basic premise in all criminal cases is: Not Gulity Untill Proven by the due Process of Law.
How can they not defend a person and not allow others to defend them!!! The UP lawyers did not allow other lawyers who were willing to take up those cases and above all these were the guys who should uphold the rule of law and NOT break it.
Why did they beat those arrested on charges of blasts when they were anyhow being produced in court? If they want to take a Principled stand Will they similarly not defend other accused who belong to majority community? Why this Bigotry!
If Majority killers of Innocents in Gujrat, Mumbai, Bhagalpur, Meerut riots can get lawyers why not people of minority communities!
Incidently in all the cases so far the investigating agencies have not been able to nail down anyone specifically except blaming ISI, Pak and now Indian Muslims! Most of those arrested are either released after torture and threatining not to open their mouths or so severely tortured that unable to bear it, they admit guilt which is rescinded in Court later!
