    Because in India even if a Pakistani terrorist is caught, he will not be encountered. Just arrested & our hard earned money will be spent on them to keep them alive. That's the Indian Rule.

    Why arrest? why not encounter, as all of them are indulged in criminal activities in past. mostly police want to give them some assignments.

    Police succeeded in preventing robbery and murder. They all have previous murder and criminal records, again and again same old story. Now what you are going to do with this badvas and that parasite Vicky. Very quick action should be taken. Put chains around their neck and legs and taken them for hard labour to clean full of Mangalore till they fall unconscious.

    This drama will not be end. Police do their job best by nabbing culprits. Criminal lawyers do their job still best by bail them out. Here the victim is remains alive until their next target This cycle will be continued as long as our legal system stick to old system
    I cannot understand why these animals need arrests? why can't finish them all at once...?

    Take a bend of Deekshith, He will tell all the cause of support and way to peaceful life!! Best is to treat cause and unemployed so called talented in this field! Do not blame any political party! Only blame the back not willing to bend for the daily living! Do you think these Vickys and poojarys can rule DK!? They can only scare isolated niche segment and earn their big money!!
