Lawyers TODAY,running for moneyBy: mohit | Friday , 17 Apr '09 12:05:22 PM Reply | Forward helping kasab, the enemy of this country and mankind too, is an act the youth of the country will not like at all........mentally sick persons like KASAB are threat to safety and prosperity of people and helping those guys is an offence too.anybody helping the enemies of country are criminals under the eye of our ideal constitution
I love challenges, says Kasab's new lawyerBy: Kaye | Friday , 17 Apr '09 11:33:14 AM Reply | Forward At last Kasab shall be viewed in the docks. He finally has a lawyer excited in his new role, and bemused at his killer client's giggles in the court. Kasab is not naive and unmindful of his offence , but sniggers at our judicial system which guarantees him a decade of life if not his full tenure on earth.The police FIR of 11 hundred pages was most comprehensive ; they have thrown the book at him with all the IPCs-from waging war against the country,on and on-right down to booking him for entering the CST without a railway platform ticket.The prosecution can only put the final nail on the coffin, after all the charges have been wrangled in court. And that is going to be some doing by the prosecution !If Pakistan were to seek revenge on India for maligning them in the world , they should have handed over us all the others too --Dawood, Lakhvi ; the jing bang lot . Imagine the chaos ensuing amongst the judiciary, security, lawyers ,media panels and human rights activists; to nail them too in Kasab's coffin.
Not to blame a community By: Shahin Shinde | Friday , 17 Apr '09 9:58:43 AM Reply | Forward I do not agree with Mr.Nitin Jain.He has blamed the whole Muslim community as in they only support a particular person if he/she is of his religion.Why don't we being educated, understand that if Ajmal doesn't get a lawyer he may be acquitted,which definitely no Indian will like.We all want him to be punished severely so that no body else ever dare to look upon India with bad intentions.Many Muslim people are participating in educating their community as to take them out of such wrong understandings.And its not only Muslim community, many others such as Marwadees, Jains etc make their own prohibited areas or societies and do not allow any other community to buy or rent flats in their areas.These kind of attitudes should be stopped on each community's level then only we will be able to make a strong and united INDIA, other wise what kind of lesson our coming generation is going to take from us by these kind of behaviors ?
Do not compare Shrikhand with Chicken By: N Other Jain | Friday , 17 Apr '09 16:08:44 PM Reply | Forward I agree with you that if a defendant cannot afford an attorney, the government is required by law to provide the defendant an attorney. The reason Jains in particular "prohibit" others to buy or rent flats in their areas, is their abhorrence to meat eating. Almost all Jains that I know are very strict vegetarians. The analogy I can offer is that no Hindu or Muslim respectively would willingly rent a place where he knows cow slaughter or pig slaughter is going to take place. I therefore take strong exception to you comparing Marwadess and Jains with terrorists. I can say with some confidence that most Jains would have no qualms about renting a place to the followers of Swaminarayan sect or Vaishnavites or Bishnois of Rajasthan.
kasab days are not numbered and kasab is confidentBy: sarma | Friday , 17 Apr '09 8:18:15 AM Reply | Forward appointing a layer is ok. but i still dont understand when kasab is caught red hand and we have many witnesses, what a layer can do ? unless he tries to disprove that the man caught is not kasab !!!.so these layers are equally responsible for the current crime in india.kasab instead of repenting,( he says he wants to go to heven, what an pigly ideology) he looks confident of getting free by a pakistani layer and todays ruling govt.election has come as a blessing in disguise for kasab.
REASONS WHY LAWYER TO ACCUSED IS REQUIREDBy: B S GANESH, BANGALORE | Friday , 17 Apr '09 12:11:17 PM Reply | Forward Mr. Sarma. I am not a lawyer but a senior citizen engineer who is actually spending time in reading news and web and sending my comments. Though everybody knows that Kasab is caught redhanded and is the actual accused, legal profession requires that Kasab must prove that he is an accused through a lawyer in the presence of a judge. This is similar to a proverb " unless a priest gives water in a special vessel, it can not be considered as a " THIRTHA " (holi God blessed water". Unless both prosecution and defence lawyers argue before a judge and judge gives his verdict after hearing both sides, accused is not considered to have been given fair chance to express his views.In the absence he is considered as inocent and may be set free. He being a Pakistani there is more rouble to India saying innocent Pakistani is being harassed. Hence legal assistance to prove that he is accused is necessary.B S GANESH, BANGALORE
Response to nitinjainBy: Shantip | Friday , 17 Apr '09 8:15:58 AM Reply | Forward Mr. Jain with all due respect, i believe that u represent the entire mindset of india today. why not give such people a chance? what is it from this report that shows u that muslims are narrowminded and step forward only for their own people?? wasnt the previous lawyer a hindu ?? and wasnt she ready to defend Kasab? the job of defending this terrorist has been thrust upon any lawyer who is a law abiding citizen of India. and it is an appointment by the supreme court judge; do u actually believe that anyone in their right frame of mind wil want to defend a terrorist?? think again before u hurl communal accusations. many of us jus talk with thinking or without any knowledge of what we are talking. meet a few muslims who are patriots and totally condemn the terrorist attacks, and then tell me.
LAWYERS MUST PROTECT VICIMS FIRST AND NOT THE ACCUSED BY ARGUEMNENTSBy: B S GANESH, BANGALORE | Friday , 17 Apr '09 7:39:29 AM Reply | Forward Lawyers should not defend accused only to get rich. In fact this is the practice in India and this is why crimes and criminals are growing at an alarming rate threatening prosperty and safety of innocent citizens. Providing justice to innocents and country must be the criterion. If lawyers are honest in protecting the victims country will progress. B S GANESH, BANGALORE
Raj ThakreyBy: Adi | Friday , 17 Apr '09 7:18:47 AM Reply | Forward Hey where r the Thakrey family member's. Are they afraid because the new lawyer is a muslim.Let them show the same enthusiasm, well beleive in them.
Ordered by King AbdullahBy: Dee | Friday , 17 Apr '09 3:04:58 AM Reply | Forward "I have no idea whether Qasab is a Pakistani. I have to go through the chargesheet," Cool! he speaks Auntlay's language (another Muslim brother). He is still not sure that Kasab is Pakistani."he had defended a UK national in a child abuse case in Goa" he can let a foreign national to abuse Indian kids if he gets the money (ya they send every years thousands of young Muslim girls to satisfy the lust of Saudis), more interesting. Probably ordered by King Abdullah to get Kasab free. Traitors
Pathetic Ideology..sorryBy: mukulsarkar | Friday , 17 Apr '09 19:53:51 PM Reply | Forward I guess thats what an defense lawyer should do right? If he says "he is culprit" then he becomes prosecutor, why would a court need two lawyers doing the same things??Second he was asked to defend, now from when following law become a situation equivalent to breaking law??Well may be intelligent people like you can answer my questions.
S G Abbas Kazmi is on the side of EvilBy: Shiva | Thursday , 16 Apr '09 22:17:12 PM Reply | Forward S G Abbas Kazmi has come to the defense of evil forces several times before. Why muslims support each other in bad activities only is simple to understand. They only understand the language of fear and therefore they support fear-mongers and fear-mongering ideologies. They know that there is nothing to fear from a good man. The only person to fear is a man of bad spirit. Hence muslims like S G Abbas Kazmi support the evil forces.
to nitinjainBy: sumit_ag | Thursday , 16 Apr '09 21:52:00 PM Reply | Forward Every individual has a legal right to lawyer. Lawyer Kazmi is court appointed lawyer for Qasab. Religion has no role in this. Please stop your narrow minded propaganda.
