Matter of muscle and money power
by Dr. Jasbir Chugh on Feb 22, 2006 04:18 PM   Permalink

The acquittal of culprits in Jessica murder case is a matter of great concern to the issue of security of a common citizen of our country. It is a clear cut pointer towards the possibility of a murderer to go away unpunished by using power of arm twisting and money. Surely ,if investigated in depth by a dedicated and efficient investigating agency, the weapons used in murder could have been easily traced more so when the number of these is more than one. The crime should have been investigated by using modern scientific techniques of lie detection,polygraph etc. used both for alleged culprits as well as the witnesses turning hostile. Even if needed the police could have employed third degree methods as they do for non-vip criminals to bring out the truth. It is shameful that life of a young and innocent girl has been put out by her own peers who have now managed to go scot free by using pressure tactics of political,money and muscle power. The higher courts must come to the rescue of aggrieved family and take up the case for further hearing so as to let the ends of justice meet.
