I had talked about this in my earlier post and sadly I feel the need to reiterate again, the unreasonableness, the hopelessness of running the trial of Kasab.
After the carnage that he left behind and the innumerable proofs that we have of not only his involvement but also the larger role played by the country of his origin, where is the need for a legal proceeding? So much of time, effort and money is being wasted for nothing. Yes, every accused should be given a fair trial but shouldn't we see if a person deserves it?
Kasab is currently doing what any accused would do under such circumstances - lie .. left, right and center. Why are we even asking him? My blood boils when I hear news items like "Kasab demands non vegetarian, spicy food in jail". The guy has the audacity to "demand"? The front pages of newspapers scream the bullshitting that he does on a daily basis.
When we don't have an iota of doubt of whether an accused has performed a crime of the severity and magnitude as the 26/11 one, when the accused doesn't have a shred of remorse for his crime, that accused does not deserve a trial. Its an insult to all those who were massacred on that day (and of course their relatives) and particularly to those who laid their lives fighting (my heart goes out to Mr. Ombale - hope his sacrifice does not go in vain).
We, the citizens of India, whose money is being wasted for this stupidity, should come together and protest and demand an immediate closure of the case and hang Kasab without wasting any more time. Let us come together once again and take out a morcha and call for an action.
What does it feel like to be old?

I completely agree with your views.. Kasab should be hanged immediately. We are wasting our precious resources just for his safety and survival. Instead we can give him a death penalty and transfer these resources into other stuff and put it into good use..
Kasab has already caused a lot of damage to our country, let us not give him more of our money, food and land..!
I support you in this cause, dude.. Great piece of writing!
True, our blood boils, we want to see him suffer the agony of all those innocents, and their loved ones too; and we want him to feel remorse. However,the purpose of the trial is beyond hanging kasab [and hang he will]. The concept of democracy is not such a comfortable one sometimes; we cannot deny any human being the right to a fair trial; even if he's a demon in disguise. We owe it to ourselves to try our best to get to the source of this barbaric deadening of consciences, and the propagation of this perverted ideology, so that formation of future Kasabs can be deterred some day. Hanging without trial is just going to satisfy our wrath, but not make any difference to all those groups, who'll probably hail him as a hero, and, most importantly, undermine our own belief in our democracy, which ultimately, is the sum total of all the things separating us from 'them'.
I completely agree with your views...well written
