This is not on!

The 'Justice for Jisha' chant is on. The opposition has taken advantage of the situation, taken to the streets in Perumbavoor and have been making statements by a dime a dozen. Their allegations center around the following:-

      (a) The police has been slow in investigating the case.
      (b) The culprits are still at large and therefore, as per VS Achuthanandan,
      (c) The investigations should be handed over to a new team.

The matter has created an uproar in both the houses of the Parliament. The central government is sending one of its ministers to ascertain the facts. The women's groups and the National Human Rights Commission are demanding early action. And what's the outcome?

While appreciating the anxiety of the people to bring the culprits to book, go through a speedy trial and hand him/them the maximum punishment for their heinous crime, it's important that the investigators are encouraged to cover every angle of the case to reach the right inferences and nab the correct culprits. Otherwise, we'd be doing a disservice to the police and even, poor Jisha if the real culprit is not identified because hasty conclusions can arrive at faulty surmises!  

Too much of pressure has been brought to bear on the Kerala Police to crack the case. The prime suspect is yet to be identified and as of date, it seems to have hit a dead end. The police should not be demoralised as they go through their fact finding mission and it's important that they're given the right encouragement and atmospherics to crack the case.

Jisha will get her justice. I'm sure.


Tailpiece.

(a) A few thundershowers have come by but there's no respite to the heat!

(b) It was Athira's engagement ceremony in the evening. The crowd consisted of the immediate
      family and Viji chechi's absence was felt. Babu chettan, Meera and Athira were graceful in their
      personal grief as they went about the ceremonies! In the meanwhile, we'd a whole lot of guests
      coming by to attend the wedding.
