They may be subjected to terrorist attack and endanger to their life.I do not know why our judicial system is not banning such things.

keep collecting evidencesBy: Ajay | Monday , 15 Jun '09 19:25:05 PM Reply | Forward Indian govt will keep collecting and confirming evidence. All this is useless if it is not followed by an action. If the govt doesn't plan to do anything, they could might as well wind up the court.
