India gets justice as Kasab to be hanged
India’s quest for justice for its most wounding terror attack culminated on Monday with a special court pronouncing death sentence to the lone surviving Pakistani gunman of 26/11 Mumbai attack Ajmal Amir Kasab for the carnage that left 166 people dead.
Two hundred and seventy-one working days, 654 witnesses, 3,192 pages of evidence and several dramatic twists and turns later the 26/11 terror siege of Mumbai which unleashed death and devastation in Mumbai has finally winded up.
“Pakistan ke LeT se milkar saajish ki uske liye maut, khoon kiya uske liye maut aur Bharat Sarkar ke khilaf jung chheda uske liye maut… Aapko marte dam tak sazayen maut di jayegi .”…these were the words uttered by Justice ML Tahaliyani while pronouncing death sentence to Kasab.
Lashkar-e-Taiba commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, Hafiz Saeed and Abu Hamza were also accused of using a complex network of agents and killers to mastermind a terror attack that shocked the world.
Kasab, 23, the lone Pakistani captured alive during the Mumbai carnage, was held guilty under nine Indian laws for murder, waging war on India and a litany of other crimes. His conviction was based on CCTV footage showing him striding across the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus with an AK-47 and a backpack.
The process of sentencing will begin Tuesday.
Almost 18 months later, survivors and family members of those who were killed in Mumbai terrorist attack got justice. According to many, his death is the only way to pay tribute to those policemen who laid their lives fighting the terrorists.
Do you see Ajmal’s trial as a victory for India’s democracy and criminal justice system? Or do you think it was all a waste of time and money? Do you think this verdict will send a message to Pakistan that it should not export terror?

God please save us from Rahul Mahajan’s swayamvar!
As if it was not enough to watch Rakhi Sawant, play the coy and blushing to-be-bride for Swayamvar Season 1, now audiences will have to put up with Rahul Mahajan as the not so dashing groom to 15 aspiring girls for the Second season of Swayamvar. Hope Rahul will marry the chosen one unlikely Rakhi end up doing engagement.
Rahul’s past shenanigans may help this show strike gold. However the very fact that a person with a past as notorious as Rahul Mahajan is being elevated to the status of a celebrity raises certain question marks about our social norms.
Rahul Mahajan first burst into public view and public space as the grieving son of BJP politician, the late Pramod Mahajan. Exactly a month after his father’s death, he had to be hospitalised after an alleged cocaine overdose. This was followed by a rushed marriage and divorce to Shweta Singh cited physical abuse and mental torture as reasons.
His first appearance on television was for the controversial reality T.V. show Big Boss-2 where he came across as an incorrigible flirt, manipulative and extremely shrewd. He flirted happily shamelessly with Payel Rohatgi and Monica Bedi. He also served as the judge on Colors’s Chhote Miyan, a children’s stand-up comedy reality show. His third stint for television will be Swayamvar Season -2.
This show is being planned around him because he is purported to be a ‘celebrity’. Without that tag of celebrity hood, he is just another ordinary person with a famous surname. Rahul Mahajan is one such so called media made celebrity whose only claim to fame has been being in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. Shameless Rahul confessed that there is no harm in getting married on television as he is being paid for marriage.
Well all we hope for this time is that the viewers do not feel cheated as they did when Rakhi only got engaged and now they do get to witness the big fat wedding of a scammer. Oh God bachaooo!!!!!!!
