Hello Carmo, As you feel so do many. I too share your sentiments. Yeah the punishment should be severe and immediate, but than who will change the laws? We are no more in a dictatorship government, which we were under Portuguese government, hence laws could be changed, but now we are in democratic government.
Also what guarantee is there that the change in law as you are asking for, will not be misused especially now when one can buy witnesses for few rupees and a poor innocent soul is hanged ? 2ndly you have quoted the Bible to Jose, asking him if he is a devout Catholic, but both your quotes are from the Old Testament. And as Catholics we follow more the new testament. Isn't it so? My last querry is that the two persons were caught immediatly inspite of them being away from Goa, Our Police got their due credit, but what about the vandalized crimes, How come none were caught? Is there something fishy in this whole matter? Cheers Jerry Fernandes
