The court named K P Pawar, also a lawyer on the legal aid panel, to assist Waghmare during the trial. Waghmare will be given legal fees of Rs 900 for appearing on behalf of the state legal aid department for Kasab.
HANG HIMBy: LALITH BHANSAL | 31-Mar-2009Reply | ForwardFIRST LET THEM PROBE THE INTELLIGENCE FAILURE OF THE STATE AND CENTRAL GOVERNMENT ON THE MUMBAI ATTACK BOTH BEING RULED BY CONGRESS. ANY LAWYER WHO WANTS TO APPEAR FOR KASAB WILL HAVE THE SAME FATE WHAT IS THERE TO ARGUE IF ALL DETAILS AND EVIDENCE HAS BEEN COLLECTED FROM HIM PUBLICLY HANG HIM THAT WILL BE A LESSON TO OTHERS.

People's judgementBy: Naveed | 31-Mar-2009Reply | ForwardWhy we are treating this terrorist as a VIP? with all sort of security, media attention, allowing lawyers to defend? Ask the victims dear ones (both hindus and muslims) they will give the judgement.
Terrorist is getting the treatment for the sake of Justice in IndiaBy: Giri | 31-Mar-2009Reply | ForwardHiKasab is the lone surviving terrorist and we want to render Justice that he denied his victims. He is getting the treatment because he is in the judicial process. I believe it is high time the case is transferred away from Mumbai. There is no chance of justice to Kasab in Mumbai. I too feel that he has to get the maximum punishment, may be death penalty. But it has to be after the complete judicial process. We owe this not to Kasab but to the entire world.
Kasab'd defenseBy: Naim Naqvi | 31-Mar-2009Reply | ForwardIrrespective of the final decision Mrs. Waghmare takes about her pursuing the case of Kasab it clear to everyone that she was going to defend the indefensible. There is nothing much to argue and the trial is merely a formality. She has not taken up Kasab case like Ram Jetjmalani's usual adventures. She was going to take up the case at the behest of Maharashtra government. Fanaticism is not based on reason and these organizations are devoid of reason. They are pretending to be ignorant of national and international laws. They don't want to miss any chance to come into lime-light even for all the silly reasons. Little wonder Advani Ji wants a debate with the P.M ! Indian Judiciary can't carry forward the case of Kasab to it's logical end without providing him a lawyer. The delay is legal assistance to Kasab will help in procrustination of the hearing process. It is a paradox that on one side they want to hang one criminal a.s.a.p. and on the other side they want to delay the trial.
not at the behest of Mah govtBy: Dilshad | 01-Apr-2009Reply | ForwardI think she is a court appointed lawyer. Unless Mah govt is dictating to the courts - the lady had the case thrust on her.And she balked.
