Concept of private revenge
by Chander Malhotra on Jun 11, 2008 10:22 PM   Permalink

Government employees accused of various crimes have never or rarely been punished. Justice to victims has rarely been given. In rare cases i.e. Jessica Lal, Nitish Katara, Priyanka Mattoo, punishment of accused was reviewed under compulsion and the accused were convicted. Otherwise, they would have gone free.

Action against Government employees must be completed within a reasonable period of time. Else, victims may either reconcile to their circumstances or take “private revenge”.

Governments - State and Central – must dispose off these cases within a reasonable period of time or else - individuals and organizations - may take the law in their own hands and punish the accused the way they deem fit.

This may lead to the growth of Naxals and private armies.
