Our institutions compromised like in the case of the IIT Kharagpur student campus death where the 2nd post-mortem has brought out that he was shot and stabbed which the first post-mortem was silent about. It is also alarming that the government institutions like the hospitals and police try to hide such a glaring injury that could have been a cause of the victim's death. The same with the Porsche accident case in Pune recently where the forensic department substituted blood samples for bribes, with the price set at Rs 5 lakh, as reported in the papers. Here again the common citizen's claim for justice was intended to be denied to save the rich perpetrator. Then look at the rape cases brought against Yediyurappa and Prajwal Revanna in Karnataka, while the poor victim in the Yediyurappa case, a minor who is claimed to be mentally challenged gets no justice and in the Revanna case there are a multitude of women victims who are at the receiving end of social stigma. The rights of common individuals should not be encroached and in the event of them being victims of crime, justice should be speedy, fair and equitable.
