THE SENTENCE ON DELHI RAPISTS SHOULD BE UPHELD AND JUVENILE RAPIST SHOULD BE CASTRATED.



By sentencing the 4 Rapists of Delhi girl, the sentencing Judge proved to be upright in delivering the judicious judgement.  With this judgment one step has been cleared for the gallows for all the four rapists.  The next step to achieve real justice for the victim and all the multitude of people not only from Delhi and in other parts of India but also from all over the world, their sentence should be implemented. The real justice will be fulfilled when the next  Courts – Appeal Court and even the Supreme Court approve the preliminary judgement delivered recently by the Fast Track Court.

Meantime is there any real possibility for these Rapists to go for an Appeal to the Higher  Court?  And if yes, who will bear the heavy expenses for the high profile Lawyers to fight for these Rapists?  All the 4 Rapists are poor financially and in such a situation who the financiers coming forward to bear their expenses and for what benefits? This is a big question for me to answer but it is very intriguing. It is not only for these Rapists but even for others who commit worst crimes and worst robberies, financiers immediately come forward to hire top Lawyers for the perpetrators of crimes of different nature.

Coming back to the juvenile Rapist who masterminded this rape from the point of coaxing the victim and her boyfriend to travel in their Bus, deserved more severe punishment of the type Saudi Arabia gives. It is very risky to allow this boy to move freely after his release in another two years because he will go for another rape and more rapes which satisfy his greed for forbidden fruit.  He knows the taste of such crimes and knowing this very well he will surely try for the more such rapes. 

These Rapists are sick in mind and precisely because of this sickness they indulge in rapes otherwise they would satisfy their sexual urge thru legal ways by going to the prostitutes who are plenty in Delhi's brothels.

In order to control juvenile's illicit sex crimes in future, I strongly feel that while in the prison serving his sentence he should be punished with “Chemical  Castration” so that he does not get the urge again for committing rapes on innocent girls. It is time for the authorities concerned now to put a complete full stop for his sexual urge otherwise there is every possibility for him to disturb the peace of society.  It is said that "when Lion tastes blood of his prey he is restless for more and more".  This is what will happen to the juvenile Rapist.

Secondly, as it is done in some advanced Western countries, once this juvenile is released from the prison, his residential area should be tracked and in that locality all the residents should be made aware of this boy’s presence and residence there so that all are alerted to take precaution of his presence in their locality.

It is very dangerous to leave him free to do what he wants.  He is a young boy without any proper direction with full of anger and revenge which surely he will release on any of his prey.

Finally, I request the Indian Human Rights activists not to interrupt the sentencing judiciary saying the punishment allotted to the 4 rapists is not correct.  They should not demand from the authorities to spare these rapists from going to the gallows. I am sure if any of the female Human Right activists was raped, they would ask for more severe punishment.   

Human Rights are meant for human beings only and not for such wild animals. These rapists have no place in society and as such their punishment should be upheld.

DEATH SENTENCE FOR THE 4 DELHI RAPISTS.



The judgement passed yesterday by the Judge in Delhi against the 4 Rapists is very appropriate and deserving.  That was the maximum sentence the Judge could pass and he deserved compliments for doing justice to his profession by giving this appropriate verdict.

This verdict besides serving as punishment for the Rapists like compensation for the sins they committed against the poor victim, will serve as a deterrent for the other would be rapists.

Would this type of appropriate and severe judgement be possible if it was not for the awareness and campaign done by the public especially in Delhi following this rape?  I don’t think so, and precisely because of this, I applaud the campaign done by the public, first to force the government to upgrade the punishment laws for such rapes, and secondly to create fast track courts.   

Thru this public campaign people got what they wanted.  Hence it is a must for the public to create such awareness to get their demands materialised when authorities go to sleep. This is called peoples power.

From the fury the public displayed against this rape to pressurise the court to pass appropriate and harsh sentence, it looked that if the court had to be lenient then public would themselves take the law into their own hands and hang the rapists publicly on the streets of Delhi.

It is to be seen now in  the backdrop of public fury whether the public would conduct the trial of the juvenile rapist and hang him publicly by taking law into their own hands when he comes out of the juvenile prison. 

This juvenile rapist as per the available information was the worst criminal. Unless he is severely punished physically, there is every possibility for him to repeat such incidents. When he comes out of the prison after 2 years, he will be a big threat to society. Everyone concerned should take note of this threat and accordingly deal with him.

I must also applaud the great role media played in campaigning for harsh punishment for these rapists.

SHAME ON INDIA AND PRAISES ON AFGHANISTAN.

 
In the recently concluded SAFF soccer tournament for South Asian countries held this time in Katmandu, Nepal,  on 11th of this month, the war devastated country Afghanistan in the final defeated India by 2 – 0 goals.  For a small country Afghanistan devastated by wars and internal turmoil compared to big country India, it was not a small victory.   

In Afghanistan the survival of human beings is in danger if an Afghani does not toe the line of the warlords.  There is no freedom there for doing any activity.  Even to play soccer in the open field or in the stadium it is risky because of the Talebans who plant bombs everywhere to kill even civilians. 

Football stadiums are known for public hangings by the Talebans during their rule a few years back thus creating fear of such stadiums. Yet Afghanis created a history by overcoming all the hurdles came on their way finally to win the South Asia’s glittering soccer crown.

Because of poverty and fear of their life, Afghani young footballers are playing suppressive soccer in their land.  In the absence of sophisticated football grounds, Afghanis play soccer even in the fields and rough terrain grounds; because of poverty, they play and practice even on bare feet without shoes.  

In their football fields there are fewer footballs but more Bombs and yet they play better football than the mighty country India where there are sophisticated stadiums, huge amount of money for the promotion of this game including services of foreign hired coaches while Afghanistan lacks these facilities. 

Inspite of so many deficiencies compared to India, Afghanistan is higher than India in FIFA ratings which says Afganistan is 6 rungs above India.

Even though Afghanistan is backward having much smaller history of soccer, only about one hundred years compared to India’s long history, half the number of their national team members are playing in Germany and USA though not in A division but B while not a single Indian footballer is fit to play even in the third division team of England; being the best player in India, Baichung  Bhuttia failed and for that matter he failed miserably for a novitiate period in the third division in England.  

Afghanis are very sturdy people capable to withstand any climatic condition besides they are patriotic to their country. Though they face difficulty in promoting their soccer yet their government is very supportive of their soccer and soccer players while the Indian government and officials are not. 

When Afghanistan won the final by humiliating India, their president Kharzai immediately sent a cable to their team in Katmandu congratulating the team members.  Would our Sardarji and Mukerji bother to act thus if India had to win?  Never.   

Moreover, one Afghani MP on behalf of the government has promised to gift highly sophisticated apartment to each of the members of the Afghani soccer team. Would any of the Indian MP’s acts similarly?  Never.  

For this reason not only in soccer but in all other sports besides Cricket, India is very backward and it will remain there only unless there is a total overhaul in our sports administrators and their archaic system.

Indian apex Sports Body is plagued by the greed for power and illicit money by the “Chor” Kalmadis who want to overrule the World Sports Body which is impossible. Kalmadis and other such rascals have no patriotism for India, for them  priority should go for their interest only and not for the country’s.  For them India comes second while they first because they have no love for India and such disgraceful and anti-national people are ruling India.  For this reason India is suffering from all evils and will suffer till eternity.  

I feel hurt that as a Goan who was forcibly converted into Indian citizen by Bharat,  is a part of this rotten India where all the rotten citizens of India are blindly accepting the rotten leaders and rotten system of India.  

While concluding, I congratulate Afghanistan and shower abundant praises on them for their victory against India. May they have more and more such victories.
