Looking at Kasab's latest antics, one wonders if all of us Indians needs to stuff cotton in our ears and also pull wool over our eyes..
or has the majority already done so? nd for the rest maybe the esteemed court shall provide the cotton if not justice.
but then looking at the passion and violence of those Indians claiming for a new state, I should be reassured that the spirit of Indians is still alive.....
Kasab latest: Have cotton in ear to shut out Nikam voiceAjmal Kasab, the lone gunman captured during the 26/11 terror attack, came to court today with cotton stuffed in one ear to “block the voice” of Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam, the latest in a series of antics during the trial.
Ajmal Kasab suddenly turned around to say
"That's not me!". That it was not him who had killed scores of innocents with the AK-47 - he had never seen such a gun nor was he trained by anyone; that he had come to Mumbai with aspirations of Bollywood lead roles; that he was not the one whom you saw on your TV screens spraying bullets at will; that he was his look-alike, whom the police had trapped.
Who can forget the "Sholay" of Marathi theatre, the
play written by Acharya Atre,
"To mee Navhech" ("That's not me"), in which a tobacco merchant is accused of cheating and defrauding several people who all swear it was indeed him in disguise. I faintly remember the protagonist was arrested and punished finally. I hope i am right! Great fiction always proves itself over and over again by turning true!
