Uphaar Tragedy: Jethmalani Defending Ansals


http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Uphaar_case_Jethmalani_starts_defending_Ansal_brothers/articleshow/2827477.cms#write

Ram Jethmalani, who was sacked as law minister to avert an impending executive -judiciary confrontation and the very devil's advocate who had picked up the cudgels for Manu Sharma-murderer of Jessica Lal, has now proposed more money to the kin of Upahaar tragedy in order to save the Ansal brothers from a prison term. Maybe he has assumed everyone would do for money what he is willing to. Maybe he owed some obligation to the Ansals too. Some questions bother me- should he have lost a dear one in the tragedy, would Ram Jethmalani have accepted more money (in his case Honey) and forgiven the Ansals? Would he have been smiling at the thought of his kin having been brutally suffocated to death by criminal negligence and greed of the Ansals or would his eyes be tearful too, while recalling the incident before media or anyone else? Maybe he would smile if was given more honey. What use is being an exceptional lawyer if you are a lousy human being?
