SC quashes Karatey’s detention (GreaterKashmir.com) 17/9/2006
Many things happened in recent weeks... sea water turned sweet, idols drank milk again, blasts rocked Indian cities yet again, Pope spoke and then ate his words, Fatwa's factories were inaugrated...Haj subsidies squashed by High court, and the squashing stayed by Supreme court, Memon's found guilty and so on... nothing too exciting in all... all usual stuff you always keep seeing on TV news... or in your papers. The usual drama of another day in the life of India...
But here's something thats made me sit up...
On September 15th 2006, Supreme court of India ordered the release of Farooq Ahmad Dar - more infamously known as "Bitta Karate" (a nickname he apparantly got for his brown belt in Karate) one of the most dreaded terrorists of our times, and a cold blooded killer.
Bitta - has his hands stained with blood from the murder of more than two dozen Kashmiri Pandits - from his days as the prime terrorist of JKLF cadre's...
If you can spare 10 minutes, you can watch this startling video - a 10 minute interview from Zee TV's Newstrack programme - where this terrorist admits brazenly to having killed more than 20 innocent people just because they were Kashmiri Pandits and clearly says he has no regrets for it. He did it just because he orders to kill Hindu's from his JKLF bosses. He didnt give a damn as to why he was killing Satish Kumar Tickoo or any of the other Pandits... they just had to be killed because they were Hindus.
And today, the Supreme court of India - has let go this terrorist - probably to give Indian parliament another "criminal leader" in near future. I wont be surprised to see him sit in the parliament house one day. Anything can happen in India... all in name of being secular, democratic and humanitarian.
Indian judiciary needs some reality check. If you can allow Bitta Karate to walk free... what hope do Jessica' Lal or Priyadarshini Mattoo's of this nation have?
What more do the courts want? Isn't killing 20+ innocent people enough for the courts to convict him. I feel all the more ashamed of people like Bhim Singh - who can go to any extent to make political brownie points. Bhim Singh can barely win any elections in his home area anymore - and unfortunately he also professes to be a supporter of Kashmiri Pandit cause. He however has come to realize what all other political parties have known for decades - Kashmiri Pandits are no vote bank. They can't help you get to power - so its better to champion the case of the terrorists. They are far more powerful - and strengthen your image of a (pseudo) humanitarian, a (pseudo) secular.
What next - Mr. Bhim Singh - who else are you going to get exonerated - Dawood Ibrahim, Tiger Memon or maybe even Masood Azhar and Bin Laden. And as long as you have the blind lady holding the scales there - any of these folks can be proved to be as innocent as a newborn.
Andha Kanoon - indeed...
