abhaya case: Narco-tape shows priests, nun admitting to crime

sep 15th, 2009

interesting subtext to this: one supreme court justice, cyriac joseph, who was then chief justice in karnataka, went to the narco lab and watched these videos. he had no business doing this. when asked about it, he said that his obligation to his religion was more important than his obligation to the indian constitution or to the legal system. 

shortly thereafter he was elevated to the supreme court.

this is how the court system is stacked in india. 

that fellow should be impeached and fired. the ELM of course showed no interest in the inappropriateness of his views (which are basically taliban style).

commenting on this, archibishop godman somebody (powwathil?) was most indignant -- of course, cyriac's allegiance to christism superseded everything else, quoth he. why are these jerks not being sued and raked over the coals?

Narco-tape shows priests, nun admitting to crime

VR Jayaraj | Kochi

The tapes of the narco-analyses in the sensational Sr Abhaya murder case of Kerala came out on Monday, showing the accused, two priests and a nun of the powerful Knanaya Catholic Church, admitting to their crime of murdering the 21-year-old nun.

The recordings contained in an 80-minute CD also showed that the two priests, Fr Thomas M Kottoor (58) and Fr Jose Puthrukayil (56), and nun Sr Seffy (43) had a relationship between them. This was perhaps for the first time the recordings of narco-analsyes in a murder case coming out in the open.

What is it with "Chief Justice" in Karnataka? There are news reports today of allegations of serious corruption (e.g., see: http://ibnlive.in.com/news/judges-assets-karnataka-chief-justice-in-trouble/101478-3.html) against the present CJ in Karnataka, Paul Daniel Dinakaran Premkumar, who is also being considered for "elevation" to the Supreme Court.
