What is happening, India? No judicial process followed to establish guilt, murdering the accused in the middle of the night, hailing the police for doing something which is clearly illegal and displays a fascist sense of justice? What the hell is wrong with all of us?
Make no mistake. What happened in Hyderabad last night was plain and simple murder. There is nothing the police can say which can justify it. Their job is to investigate a crime, establish facts and submit everything to court. It ends there. This bravado is only going to turn us into bloodthirsty animals, incapable of realising that a code of conduct exists for institutions to avoid descending into our most basic instincts.
