Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab was caught massacring Mumbai public on 26th Nov, 2008.
Its established that he's a terrorist and Pakistani and caught while committing the act.
What is the need to try him in the court? Why give him a chance to hoodwink justice?
I have read that the cop who helped disarming him lost his life. So many lost fighting Kasab and his accomplices. Isn't there no value for these peoples lives? What is the need to accord a foreigner-terrorist with the privileges of our judicial system? He conspired with his accomplices and together massacred more than 150 people.
Is he same as a Pakistani who just overstayed his welcome in India? or is he a Bangladeshi labourer working in Rajasthan without proper documents? Or even as terrorist, is he Indian?
I think Kasab should be handed over to the army as a prisoner-of-war.
I think some of Indian laws may not hold good for all situations. That is where the elected representatives come into picture. They should discuss/brainstorm/debate in the parliament oh how to convict terrorists and make necessary amendments to such laws.
If it doesn't happen soon, we may even see Dawood/Prabhakaran in Indian courts getting anticipatory bail and delaying conviction by decades.
Democracy and Judiciary took a new turn for the worse when India starts court trials of a terrorist accused of massacring hundreds of civilians. A Prisoner of War(POW) must be treated with in the Geneva conventions. A POW was a fighter fighting for his country. There is no better treatment to a terrorist than a slow and torturous death. Indian govt made a mockery of the judicial system by court trials and wasting time over it. This appears as a weakness to a prospective terrorist waiting to cross borders and unleash terror. This issue should have been dealt with a iron fist not by a lawyer and a judge in a court room. What do they want to try?? think about what punishment to be given? ultimately during the course of this trial a humanitarian group will come up and demand fair treatment to this terrorist.. So this terrorist might as-well get out of jail, or might even spend a life term. Sustaining a human being in jail for life means wastage of tax payers money..Who knows this guy along with other terrorists, might even contest elections some time in future.Ridiculous..
