Now that the duo killers (in their own admission)
have been arrested, produced in the Criminal
Court Margao and thereafter remanded to police custody
for 14 days, the general view of the public is that
the police should be allowed to complete their
investigations and tighten up the loose ends to enable
them make a fool proof case.
It must be remembered that the rate of conviction in
India is about 4 % and therefore to ensure that the
ends of justice are met the people who are in the know
of things could at best volunteer to make statements
before the court or assist the Maina Curtorim police
who have done a comMendable job in tracking down the
duo. This in the opinion of well meaning citizens is
the only way one could ensure conviction. Hence mere
debate/clarifications and counter clarification on
press reports etc would only distract the attention of
the police.
The Deputy Inspector General of Police Mr Ujwal Mishra
is believed to have handled the case exceedingly well
as on now and even if some statements as may have
appeared in a section of the press or in other news
media needs to be read between the lines lest the
culprits wriggle out of the situation
It should also be noted that the antecedents of the
duo killers are yet to be identified and at this
juncture it would not be possible for the Police to
divulge all information. Hence the general feeling is
to excercise restraint and support the police
personnel.
This writer assures the concerned citizens of close
follow up on merits as the case progressess.
It would also not be out of place if the police
personnel of Maina Curtorim Salcete Goa are rewarded
for their excellent job, in tracking down the
culprits.
