Santosh appears to be yet another anti-christian baiter in the Barad mould. He makes cheap, flippant, loose, sensational and irresponsible statements and then tries to wriggle out by trying to obfuscate the issue. Here is his statement:
Quote: "So I will let you know if and when I receive a copy of the interviews that have already been conducted with funds from various religious organizations with a common interest in persecution theology, by those who have released the report." "As regards interviewing the victims myself, I trust that Justice Saldanha, Harsh Mander, Marshall Mendonza, etc. have already done that, and am waiting to read their interviews in the detailed report." Unquote: The above statement contains 2 main points: 1. INTERVIEWS CONDUCTED WITH FUNDS from various religious organisations with a common interest in persecution theology. 2. JUSTICE SALDANHA AND HARSH MANDER HAVE ALREADY INTERVIEWED THEIR VICTIMS and I (Santosh) am waiting to read THEIR INTERVIEWS in the detailed report Santosh alleges that Justice Saldanha and Harsh Mander have conducted their interviews/ investigations with funds from questionable sources. He needs to provide evidence: 1. that the interviews were conducted by Justice Saldanha and Harsh Mander, and 2. that these interviews were conducted with funds from religious organisations interested in 'persecution theology' whatever that means in Santosh's lectionary. It is absolutely clear that he is smearing Justice Saldanha and Harsh Mander and maligning their integrity and reputation while casting doubts on the source of funds which fund their activities. It is sad and unfortunate that educated and intelligent people like Santosh are so shameless that they will go to any extent to malign the integrity and reputation of people for their narrow selfish ideological ends. This is nothing but a continuation of the trend set by his defence/ justification of the rapes, murders and violence against defenceless people in Kandhamal a few years ago. It is common knowledge that hindutva activists and their sympathizers/ apologists like Santosh are very active in internet forums trolling anything which exposes their nefarious activities. Regards, Marshall *The accusatory statements in the post appended below are a distortion of what I said. I have never stated that Justice Saldanha and Harsh Mander have collected funds from various religious organizations. I quote below the two statements that I have made:"So I will let you know if and when I receive a copy of the interviews?that have already been conducted with funds from various religious?organizations with a common interest in persecution theology, by those who have?released the report.""As regards interviewing the victims myself, I trust that Justice Saldanha, Harsh Mander, Marshall Mendonza, etc. have already done that, and am waiting to read their interviews in the detailed report." * *Santosh Helekar*
