    Let India learn from the Gulf Countries that tit for tat is the only way to punish the criminals. Here, the money and muscle power can buy freedom and I have doubt even on the Judges, who pronounce the judgement. Otherwise, people like Salman Khan, Mallyaer and other "A" Grade Criminals wont be roaming like free birds. The administration in this country has really gone to Dogs, as scam after scam, corruption has ruined the common man.
