I strongly condemn to this.An open question for the govt. is why didnt it tk any action on this.when we the general public know wat the talibans wud do then obviously the govt wud also hv known the consequences but still there was no attempt made to resque maniappan. Not just the people but the govt. mindset needs to b changed if this is not done then may b d govt. is not capable of ruling - BETTER THEY QUIT THERE POSITION so that this kinda situation doesnt arise again.
