IN SCARLET MURDER CASE, SAMMSON D'SOUZA WAS SENTENCED.

Finally the verdict has been passed by the High Court and Samson D’Souza has been sentenced for 10 years rigorous imprisonment. I am not sure whether this judgement is ok but only the apex court of the country will decide when the accused as informed, will approach the apex court.  Till then let us accept this verdict as Gospel Truth.  

The important aspect of this case is how the Goa Police made the blunder first by dismissing it as an accidental drowning case of Scarlet Keeling and when the CBI took over the case then only the real truth was surfaced thereby baring the flaws committed by the Goa Police and also by the Juvenile Court.  I think all the Judicial luminaries of Juvenile  Court must be acting only as Juveniles and as such can any person rely on this Juvenile Court for proper deliverance of justice?  

  I have totally lost my confidence in Goa Police who as alleged are bribe prone and to make illicit money they will go to any extent. Most shameless and hard hearted people on our planet are the Policemen, they neither have shame to demand Bribe nor if offered bribe they are ashamed to accept it. Many of them are  even capable to sell their conscience because some of these third class Policemen are first to shift their attention on the young females when they enter for any investigation at  your place. Precisely because of this the tag as “cheap and undignified” Goans, during the Porotuguese time in Goa, Policeman’s job was discarded even by the lower strata of Goans. If you want to know what segment of Goan society Mr. X Policeman belongs to, you need not go miles on foot but the moment you say you are a Policeman then it is enough for you to know the whole background of that particular Policeman. This  quality of the Goan Policemen in Goa disgraces the already disgraceful image  of the Goan Policemen who during the Portuguese regime were not given any important rank by our colonial masters, in fact during that time they were kept in the government sectors as third class personnel and as such Portuguese Pakles used to use some of them as Pimps. The  real respect Goan Policemen are not getting only because traditionally and historically they are known to get no respect and as things are moving now these Goan Policemen will never receive the real respect whatever rank they may hold.  

  

Now I realized why the authorities concerned refused to hand over the case of Fr. Bismarque to CBI because knowing its uprightness CBI will catch the correct culprit and bare the mystery surrounding around the mysterious death of Fr. Bismarque.  What a tragedy that if the concerned authority wants to protect the murderer it can easily do so by denying justice to the victim thru its powerful wings that are existing only to serve the powerful!!  This is what has happened in case of Fr. Bismarque. Such high handedness and “Dadagiri” with regards to meting out justice to the victims were not done even by thePortuguese dictator Dr. Antonio Oliveira SALAZAR. It looks to me in the Salazar’s regime we were far beter than   in this bloddy so called liberated Goa.  Liberated Goa is become good for the rogues, rascals, thieves, murderers, defectors and the Rostad Goenkars.  In such a situation, what good we will see in this dirty and foul Goa?

It is since the end of Portuguese rule that obtaining proper justice by the victim is become very hard because the money power in the hands of culprits is become very big that can easily purchase the cheap police force and unprincipled judiciary.  Who can rectify this mistake?

NEW TIATRO "TEMPA PORMONNE" BY ROSEFERNS.

NEW TIATRO 'TEMPA PORMONNE' BY ROSEFERNS.

On 21^st of this month, Sunday, starting exactly at the scheduled time 3.30 PM, at Kala Academy in Panjim, I saw the first Show of the new Tiatro “TEMPA PORMONNE” written and directed by the King of Centuries, the renowned playwright Rose Ferns, this was his 95^th production. This Tiatro was attended by the capacity of attendees came from Panjim and other surrounding areas and many of them as per my information went home satisfied.  

Annie Quadros seen rendering an opening Canto holding her child

One of the scenes 

JOLRITA & AGEMA SINGS THEIR SONG

To cut short since this Tiatro is to be staged all over Goa and Mumbai and may be elsewhere as it is happening now very often since there are more Tiatro fans also in the Gulf and UK,  the story is based on  family life where to support and to satisfy the needs of his younger brother (role played by Eddie) Roseferns (as his elder brother though mentally not fully sound) goes to any extent, even he gives his new born son to the rich man (Michael De Silva) in exchange of some lakhs of rupees to be utilized for the sickness of his younger brother. The role played by Eddie was appropriate  and that of his wife by Antonette de Maina was excellent. Mario Menezes played his role well of a Businessman. 

Michael De Silva sings his solo 

Jolrita sings her solo

Rosario de Benaulim sings his solo

In this  horrible and rather difficult deal, the elder brother’s wife Annie Quadros brings tears into the eyes of the audience simultaneously bringing tears also into her eyes.  The most pathetic occasion was when she hands over the baby to Michael De Silva (the rich man). Then lot of ups and downs are seen happening all because of money and finally they all come together by accepting the fact that we must act according to “TEMPA PORMONNE”.

Comedy part.  Seen in the middle is Agostinho

Another scene: Scene are Roseferns-Selvy-Antonette-Eddie

Yet another scene where Eddie & Antonette de Maina seen

The role played by Annie Quadros was superb in all respects, even her dress code was appropriate befitting the scenes, her delivery of every word was clear and flawless and in one word I can rightly say that she stole the Show. Even the Cantos she rendered were of high quality with respect to lyrics and delivery. 

                                            Saby de Divar seen singing his solo
     

One more scene: Scene are Roseferns &Annie Quadros

A comedy scene: Neto & Dorothy

The comedy part was well played by Comedian Agostinho, Selvy, Neto, Dorothy and it was well accepted by the audience. 

Benny de Aldona sings his solo

Jolita and Saby de Divar sings their duet

One of the penultimate scenes

Though the Side Show songs were good yet there was still a room for improvement, there were no “Pezad” songs yet  Saby de Divar with his solo and a duet with Jorlita –both political – quenched the thirst of the audience, so also Benny de Aldona, Rosario de Benaulim and others. The title song rendered by Jolrita and Ageema was very well rendered, so also the solo of Jolrita.

The penultimate scene

Last scene: Michael-Jason-Annie-Roseferns-Eddie-Antonette

As a whole the Tiatro is worth watching.  Well done Roseferns and his troupe.

CONDUCT NUREMBURG TYPE OF TRIAL OF ALL DEFECTORS.

It was not an ordinary shock but it was like a surprise, the way it came  like the thundering without lightning thus putting them out of the track. It came like a holocaust, it came like an atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima without prior notice. What is it then? It was nothing but the greatest shocking blow the worst traitor than the Biblical Judas, Vijay Sardesai received from BJP when he was informed by the BJP to submit his and his equally worst traitor colleagues, resignations from the Goa Ministry. It was highly unexpected blow which they found really unbearable.  In this context let me cite another example of sudden blow.

It was in early seventies when the then powerful Cabinet colleague and deputy Premier cum Finance Minister of India, in the Cabinet of Premier Indira Gandhi, Morarjee Desai was dismissed from her Cabinet. Morarjee Desai surprisingly knowing not what has happened on the previous night at Indira Gandi’s residence, receiving this news of his fate in the morning news bulletin of All India Radio, remarked thus: When I heard this news first at All India Radio of my dismissal from the Cabinet, “it looked to me that Indira Gandhi dropped me like a house wife dropped potatoes and Onions in the Kitchen”.  So humiliating this news was. And the importance of the jobs the ministers hold, they come to know only when they are thrown out abruptly. 

I saw once how so many MLA’s and Ministers while coming out of the Secretariat after the  dissolution of the Goa Legislative Assembly, were crying and sobbing by putting their handkerchiefs in their mouths realising the unwantedness and humiliation they will have to face. Within a few minutes one of them being unable to face the World around his head, after reaching home was struggling to jump into his well to commit suicide. Don’t we know how that MGP crook Karmali committed suicide in Bombay by jumping from the top floor of the Hotel where he was staying? He committed this suicide because Bandodcar denied him the ticket to contest the re-election, during the earlier term he was Education/Health Minister in Bandodcar’s Caabinet and because he was Minister, the pride and ego gone to his head, he started acting like a Maharaja and feudal lord, a short time ago the top Portuguese officials were living like feudal lords in Goa. Karmali was imitating them as if he was the Portuguese just like our counterparts in other parts of India under the British rule were doing by imitating the British Monarchs.  These Indians and those Goans who were known to eat Pan-Potti and Rotti wearing Dhoti cannot imitate the Europeans.  The Europeans are Europeans, they have their own way of living, eating, drinking and humanity  which are totally foreign to us and yet we want to imitate them.  Compared to them and their life style, we are far backward because we are intellectually “fakir” and just to untag that tag of fakir we try to act like them with full of pride in ourselves.  This is the result of the ancestral inferiority complex we are suffering and Karmali was one of them, the government provided Limousine, Bungalow at Altinho Panjim, security round the clock not only for him but even for his dogs and cats.  Did his “Azo” any time dreamt that his “Natu” will anytime in his life time enjoy such benefits?  Never.  But he enjoyed and during his Ministerial period enjoying all those free of cost facilties, pride gone to his head and started acting like super Goan in which capacity he started treating people below and around him like “Kochro”.  So when he was denied the election ticket to contest the election, how he could get on the same position as he was occupying during his previous tenure?  Earlier he was acting like a man coming from outer planet but later on how he could act thus?  Even an ordinary man on the street would not say hello to him by calling him as “Sir”. Thinking all these humiliations he would have to face, he said it is better to commit suicide which he finally committed in Bombay.

    

Today Vijay Sardesai and his gang of another 3 traitors are suffering from powerlessness though they have minted money thru illicit means but money is not everything and as it is quoted in the Bible “man does not live on bread alone”. Earlier they enjoyed the power abundantly especially Vijay Sardesai who even used to shake Parricar. He was wielding lot of influence under Parricar who according to confidential information have meekly surrendered for so many times. This support of Parricar reached to the head of Vijay Sardesai and Kauntte too and because of this temporary power both of them were acting like Emperor Nero.  They never thought that the power they used was just a temporary and borrowed one which can at any moment vanish like an Ether putting Vijay’s false pride on the road.  

        

I know the current generation is very angry on those politicians who are responsible to corrupt the democratic and secular system existing in Goa and according to my observation I feel the members of this generation will never forgive all those politicians who defected to other parties. This generation   members may even strip them nude and conduct Nuremburg type of trial of them on the public street.
