I have said previously, that I would let the Ribandar issue take it's course. Seems to me that it has - as previously written by me, I believe this issue has come to naught. In two different posts Aires has informed us that the Police were about to Charge the priest; nothing has come to pass, now Aires is imploring the C.M. to investigate someone's suicide! It seems to me and I am sure to many other readers that this is a 'cause celebre' only thing is, that there is no case. Aires is doing himself and Goans no good by chasing this lost cause. Instead he should brief us on how he is getting along with taking the C.M. for slander. In the England the burden of proof in slander cases is on the defendant - so is this is also the case in Indian Law ? if so, then Aires should have no problems at all! Further more in England it costs more than an arm and a leg to bring to Court such cases; starting from a minimum of �50,000 and easily running to a million. Aires could perhaps brief us on the Goan/Indian set up and divert from the Ribander issue which is crippling, not only Aires but the rest of us Goans, who rely on him to raise other grave issues in the state of Goa. Cheers, Gabe.
