It seems that everyone here either has comprehension issues or is overly emotional. Even according to Islamic law this punishment is not acceptable, so how can the fools here accuse me of justifying this act?

The thing with the Internet is that people can't tell wheather you are joking or being serious or just passing a light hearted comment. So everything you say is considered as serious. What you said here earlier, had you said it during a conversation with a bunch of friends or co-workers or any gathering, people would have just laughed it off. But here you become a close minded, crime justifier etc.

But I still don't understand where I justified the actions of the police. All I did was try to give possible explanations as to why the police would do this. I have a lot of friends in Punjab Police.


After seeing our rangers killing that boy in Karachi, I am a hardliner against our police and am always critical of any headlines that they make.


But again, when did I justify their actions?

These pseudo-intellectuals have made the accusation that I justify their acts, but can they prove it to me???

The woman was probably a known prostitute, and the guy a consistent customer.

Who cares what they are.

Where in the Pakistani Code of Laws does it state that people are to be paraded naked?

This is beyond stupid.

Whatever she is or his moral character, they were banging each other in his home and police should keep out of one's private property and should only enter with a warrant.

Read the article again. I don't support Police busting in to people's homes. I have just made the assessment that the police knew these people from arrests prior.

Just because I have said this, it makes me a supporter of these actions?

I am merely making a prediction.

The larger issue I feel that lies at the root of the problem that afflicts Police in S Asia are some or all of the following :

1. Absence of fear & respect of the law coupled with the thought that they themselves are above the law.
2. No formal education, training or awareness of social etiquette and the old Brit days mindset of the danda being the sole arbitrator which can cow down protests.
3. Rural mind set which leads to application of silly ' answers/ actions' like the one we have at hand.
4. Slow pace of legal system - the victim does not want to get embroiled and an accused can get away easily.

That series of posts from #38 to #43 rang so true! Much of it applies, changing only one word, to India as well.

I think the days of hiring mindless country bumpkins only able to beat up people with lathis, and extort confessions from petty criminals by using third degree methods, are over. We need a different breed, educated better, knowledgeable about the CrPC, a thousand times more sensitive to gender and minority issues, and immune from the threat of manipulation by the political class. And we need half of them to be women.
