The SCI- Fiction Drama in Nadia Torrado Case by Menino Fernandes

When caught in the net of law, the politicians seem to be very good in acting and feigning sicknesses. Mickky Pacheco has done it just like in the Bollywood movie NAYAK the politician after planting bombs lands himself in hospital with various illnesses. How brave they are! Mickky has followed that particular scene. Looks like also he is very good in acting and should have jumped on to the Konkani stage where he would have earned a good name and been very famous as well rather than infamous. The hypertension he himself created has landed him in the ICU. Would the doctors of the hospital admitted any ordinary citizen to the ICU for a similar case? This is one trick to avoid the CRIME BRANCH and the interrogation. In such cases there should be a special medical body comprising of special doctors to re-check on the reports of the admitting doctors. If anything is proved to be false then the signing doctors should be taken to task also, as far as withdrawing their degrees of medical profession.

According to Public Prosecutor Sarojini Sardinha it is the right of the Crime Branch to take Mickky Pacheco into custody given rejection of his anticipatory bail by the Session Court, High Court and the Supreme Court. Yes albeit! First of all it would be wrong on the part of the District Magistrate if he sends Mickky Pacheco to Judicial custody rather than Police custody pending investigation solely due to Pacheco’s absentia. This would also raise a question: When the High Court and the Supreme Court rejected the anticipatory bail of the former tourism minister, then how did the District Magistrate not take it into consideration this fact and accord police custody instead of judicial custody?

This way lot of unanswered questions pertaining to the crime would be left where they are and the whole case will be a square one. On one hand Mickky claims that he was innocent and had been falsely implicated in the Nadia Torrado death case, former tourism minister, Mickky Pacheco has said that there are no circumstances against him of whatsoever nature to attract all the IPC sections applied against him. If he is truly innocent as he claims to be then there was no need to be in hiding for over a month. He should have come out in the open and attended the calls of Crime Branch. The Indian law says that every person is innocent until his guilt is proved. He definitely had a good chance of defending himself were he not to go into hiding and that would have turned him into a hero to his supporters as well. Mickky should have understood this and acted accordingly. His absconding for over a month confirms the doubts of the common people of his neck deep involvement in the death of Nadia Torrado.

Again the strange behaviour of the Mother and brothers of the deceased have casted more black shadows on Mickky and the case. The punishment should be more stringent for the people who destroy evidence be it any case. It is also hard to understand a mother who should be defending her daughter tries to save the accused and destroys the evidence, dispatches the servant back to her village raising a question: Was she illegally involved with Mickky Pacheco as well? Mr. Barretto the husband of Nadia is right in his place and any sensible man would do what he has opted for that is DIVORCE. There should be tough interrogation of the mother and brothers of Nadia Torrado to get the real truth out of them.

We have a good Police officer Sunita Sawant investigating the case unlike the one of the Cops Drugs Nexus which is investigated by Officer Chandrakant Salgaoncar. However Sunita should not bend to any pressure. There is also a little doubt that the politicians will interfere in this case fearing their own seat and their own safety in politcs.

Let us hope that the investigation takes a good turn and the truth comes out. Like a saying goes that OIL ALWAYS FLOATS ON WATER.
