Punishment without a trial is not an Indian phenomenon. It has been going on for a very long time and will continue till there are criminals using the loopholes and political patronage to evade the law. Congress used staged encounters and extra judicial killings in dealing with Naxals and the Sikh insurgents. They also used it to deal with the Mumbai underworld. The "Encounter Specialist" Daya Nayak became something of a cult hero. This also happened during the 1990's when Narendra Modi was nowhere near the seats of power. As will become clear after reading the excellent article by Ashok Malik, that Congress used a similar tactic to get rid of Sohrabuddin Sheikh's boss Abdul Latif in 1997.
Sohrabuddin's rise from Latif's driver to an underworld player and a jihadi / jihad supporter has been covered very well in Mr. Kanchan Gupta's blog. So the question to ponder over is: How is Sohrabuddin's death different from the endless encounter killings done under the Congress rules in the past?
The answer very clearly is: This death gives Congress a stick with which to beat Narendra Modi. Now the Congress Bureau of Investigation (aka CBI) has found nothing so far to implicate Amit Shah, let alone Narendra Modi. What Congress is hoping is that by casting aspersions on Narendra Modi, they can bring down the most successful CM in the nation because he happens to be a Hindu Conservative icon. This is what is commonly known as the "Crab Mentality" (in a barrel of crabs, the crab which gets close to escaping by climbing, is pulled down by other crabs. Also known as the "khud toh doobenge sanam, tujh ko bhi le doobenge").
I hope that the Indian voter can see through this feeble and criminal attempt by Sonia Sarkar to taint the only performing state government in India. One really wonders if the Congress politicians have any shame at all and do they care about the Indian population at all.
The Truth about Sohrabuddin Sheikh
Rather expectedly, and unfortunately, the debate on the killing of Sohrabuddin Sheikh by a team of police officers from Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh has got compressed into a quarrel on Narendra Modi. There are those who see this as comeuppance for the Gujarat chief minister, among India's most charismatic as well as most polarising politicians. There are others who see this as vendetta on the part of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the UPA government.
It would be unfair to reduce the episode to a referendum on Narendra Modi. Things are far more complex. Some internal security specialists and policing veterans - not all them Modi fans - are plain distraught. They believe the politicisation of standard crime fighting and the implication of sections of the police in a tussle between India's two biggest political parties will prove hazardous in the long run.
