Last night watched Star News give wearisome details on the forensic lab in Gandhinagar which will conduct the narco-analysis. All this harping on analysis, and very little on investigation. I’m guessing that the authorities are content to sit on their bums, and twiddle their thumbs while the week-long analysis is going on.

Whatever happened to good old detective work ? What IS the police doing now ? Why no further details on who-what-where ? Because this racket was not just conjured by the said twosome. There have got be more people involved. The accused must have talked to people, met others. He must have associates, friends, acquaintances, phone records. Someone must have seen something.

Such trust in forensic procedures which cannot even be admitted as evidence in court !

Meanwhile the entertaining Yadav brothers regale us with platitudes such as this (from NDTV):

“Such incidents happen in every state, but in this case we were able to expose it,” said Yadav who is the brother of Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav.

Such magnificence ! Let’s get credit for even exposing this crime, no matter that we do nothing to prevent it now or in the future.

And this (from NewKerala):

“Such small incidents keep happening,” Yadav told reporters after visiting Nithari village to distribute additional compensation of Rs three lakh each to the parents of the victims.
