Patiala rape case: Action against erring cops

MIKE - DELHI
The unfortunate rape victim has galvanized the society at large particularly the youth.The images in media clearly show more boys than girls with obvious conclusion that the boys infact feel bad or ashamed of the rapes in our country. Strong punishments or laws may be deterrent but it tends to be misused particulalry in a country like ours. We have seen guily roaming free due to cumbersome criminal-justice system.The most important thing which our govt. must do is to strike at root-cause of crimes -on why these crimes happen and how they can be prevented. Punishment is only after the crime but prevention occurs before that-involve sociologists, gram panchayats, R.W.As and religious organisations to change the mindset.

The death of the rape victim is an extremely sad end to the sad story. But in her death or the sacrifice as it may be called she has lit a spark in the minds of youth who for once have shown tremendous courage to fight this evil crime of rape. It has badly jolted the govt. who has for years not done anything to change laws or reform our judicial system to mete out quick punishment to the accused and instill sense of security in the citizens. Hats off to our youth who have shown fortitude and sensitivity to this matter of grave concern.

Rapists are a frustated lot who find a weak target and take out their frustations.By doing so they may not realise that they are doing this heinous crime to a sister,mother or wife who may be one of his own -but this he is doing someone else. They bring shame to their own families and society at large. THEIR PUNISHMENT NOT HANGING BUT CASTRATION which will remind them as well as others of the cosequences till he lives.

Our police(not only Punjab police) has become so insensible. They are never sensitive or sympathetic to victims.

Punsihment for rape must be of the type that in future the offender would not be able to track a girl or assuming he consumed the act, he would not be able to run away from the place of occurrance. This could be done either by rupturing or cutting the Tendo Achielles of the leg. It does not cause death but makes the man immobile for the purpose. Also a person with such type of disability is quickly recognised in the society making the man ashaned to face the public.This can be tried either with the legs or hands as the doctors or prosecution feels denmanding to the offence.This is a safe approach besides what others one may feel like.

I fail to understand how justice can be given to a rape victim ? Can rape be undone? Perhaps only way one can give justice to women of india is by ensuring that no one dares to do rape and even if somebody dares, there should be proper mechanism whereby he/they should be prevented to so and for that minimum the Government can do is enact tough,fair,just,tranparent,unbiased ,impartial anti-corruption laws with genuine, fair and sensitive intention,tough anti-rape laws, fast & timebound as well as free & fair trial and transparency and accountability at every level and at every stage right from law making to implementation of law(have we not seen the fate of Womens’ Reservatio Bill ,Lokpal Bill etc.) to deliverance of judgement to implementation of fair judgement(in India there are reported cases of convicted prisoners doing criminal activities from inside the jail, weapons and drugs smuggled into jails unofficially ,roaming freely out of prison etc.).Million dollar question is who will do this ?And no assurances please!(Were we not assured about Jan Lokpal Bill , consensus on FDI ,etc.)

this so much pathetic that a girl who sought police protection and collected courage despite dire warnings by those rapists.. but from the acting police athourity`s side this is absolute negligent and carelessness leading to suicide of this helpless victims.. the police violated the rights of a citizen leading to violations of the constitutional rights.. these police who involved in this case should not b spared by the courts.. we all aware that india is rich.country in its diverse cultures and traditions and women in majority of socities are being dumped in their mind whatsoever they suffered from criminals fearing loss of their family N social dignity and so very few cases of rapes are exposed which are also either neglected or dismissed by the influential authority... therefore ,i m as an indian and request all my fellow indians to support and make one voice in.bringing stringent law to.rectify and clear all these debrises so that we live in free and peacefully...

if government wants to save women and really wants to improve the condition of girls.govt.should hand over the rapers to public to give horrible punishment so that in future no one raper could do rape of any girl.govt should give capital punishment to these rapers.

Policemen responsible for delays, subsequently suicide of the girl are actual murderes of the said girl they should be hanged first.
