According to police, the accused had fled from the scene and was staying in Belgaum for few days. However, after the accused returned to back, Valpoi police PI Shivram Vaigankar arrested him and is in the police custody
Love or no love he has no right to attack the weaker sex, the case should be treated as murder. In Goa no one fears the law as it's an arse or ass.
ReplyDeleteAfter five days police custody, what then? He will be acquitted and released for lack of evidence. If one criminal of this calibre is severely punished, others will learn a lesson. But all the criminals know that there wont be any punishment, at least as far a Goa Police and Goa's justice system are concerned.
