Thats not what happened here however. The scenario is simple. Is Alistair guilty or not? He is as guilty as hell and no one other than him are to blame. If as you claim he was not mature enough then he should not have been driving under influence. Accountability has to be assigned as per his action. In any case if you are hitting people on the road it probably means that you don't have control in any case. There is no court in the world that will support you when you can say that you were driving at 55 and a reckless guy crossed so you hit him, unitil and unless you can prove that he was jaywalking. In any case in India jaywalking laws are non-existent

Guys, have you ever tried to put yourself in the shoes of drivers ever...I have...Believe me its a nightmare om BOMBAY road...HOW ON EARTH can you expect to see people to be sleeping on pavement or roads especially when the street lights are not working...Yes I agree he deserves punishment for drunk driving....But that's it. HE IS NOT A KILLER

As Government is allowed sell liquor and like things with Government permission drunken driving is not illegal. Stop selling voine and liquor totally in India and any other like products which will destroy the control of human brain. Let us oppose wine, liquor etc. with great protest. Let our income be very less but people be healthy. Healthy and right thinkers will be more productive for nation as well as for entire family.

What a logic man, so the blame is on street lights are not working and people sleeping in the pavements. Forget about sleeping, this could have even happened if people are walking on the pavements, because the driver is drunk and over speeding. Think if this would have heppened with your brother, sister, friend or some relatives, I am sure that this logic will be proved wrong to you

Thats exactly what I said...3 years punishment for drunk driving..Thats it..What could have happened is a completely baseless question....What could have happened if Patel was our 1st PM?? I mean dont go into that....You would have driven rash at some point in your life which could have killed people....

you cant see only if dont have the headlights working for your vehicle and not just beacuse street lights arent working.
Please understand we are in India... its very easy to write from the comfort of your airconditioned office/home. But see the other side of the coin also. People do not love to sleep on pavements or roads, they sleep there bcoz they can't afford luxary me & u r having... The fact remains Alister was drunk and he was mature enough to know that his action of driving rash after drinks can be dangeruos for others. Many of those killed were sole bread winner for some families, think a bit about them also.
He should be punished with minimum of life sentence (this too as he may claim and court will uphold that he was unaware of his actions) if not death penalty.

I disagree, Alister wasnt mature enuf...Do you think the kind of life he was leading he knew how heinous it could become....If at all, his parents dereve sentence more than him

Anuj, It doesn't sound very convincing that he was not mature... Yes I agree with u, if the court declare him mentally unsound then his parents must be taken to task for giving him so much of luxary and freedom to kill.....
