Preventing police from filing charge: Absolutely ridiculous it is!

Absolutely ridiculous it is that lawyers expected to help people get justice in courts tried to prevent police from filing the charge sheet in the much hyped rape-n-murder case of a minor bakerwal muslim girl of Hiranagar area of Kathua district in Jammu region. So for we used to witness intolerance under Modi government in educational institutions but it is hurting and insulting for those propagating democracy and rule of law that lawyers approached by helpless people for getting justice has tried to come in the way of police just to stop it from carrying forward a legal process for taking the investigation of a dastardly act to logical conclusion. Rightly former Chief Minister and leader of the opposition National Conference in the assembly Omar Abdullah has in tweet said “Shame on them!”. While the lawyers deserve the strong condemnation for tending to prevent the crime branch officials of Jammu & Kashmir police from filing charge sheet into the rape-n-murder case of Kathua minor girl, the police too on its part owes some explanations to the people for showing laxity in making the necessary security arrangements for the security of the team of the crime officials who went to court to file the charge sheets as the same was necessitated in view of the unwanted repeated provocations by the hostile communal political forces in Jammu region.
Interestingly the Chief himself holding the portfolio of home department should directed the law enforcement authorities to take care of the security arrangements in and around the premises of the court where the officials of the crime branch had to filed the charge sheet into the rape-n-murder of Kathua minor girl and taking such precautionary had become a compulsion after the announcement of Jammu Bar Association, Jammu trading bodies and Jammu civil association for one day shutdown call on April 13 against the investigation of the case by the crime branch of the Jammu & Kashmir police. It is absolutely hurting and insulting for the pioneers of the slogans “Beti, Bachao, Beti Pado” and “Ladli Beti” the despite being in power both at the centre and in the state they not only allow the communalists to pursue a violent path of agitation against the probe into the rape-n-murder of eight year old girl but also tend to become part of the agitation overtly and covertly just for their petty political interests. Supporting people who tried to prevent a team of the officials of the crime branch of Jammu & Kashmir from filing the charge sheet into the rape-n-murder of eight year old minor girls is not only condemnable abut absolutely ridiculous.
