His mom must be so proud...This just in: Pranab Mukherjee, the External Affairs Minister, just announced that Ajmal Amir Kasav, also known as the certified lunatic who murdered scores of innocent civilians during the Mumbai seize, is going to be having a special visitor: his mother is coming to town. Won't they look so precious together for the media, one big happy family in the highest security prison in the state? I can almost smell the barf that will be projecting from my stomach when I see this again tomorrow in the papers.
I'm all for family reunions. I really am. But not so much when it's for a delusional, murdering psychopath who effectively split our nation into tiny fragments of immense shame and dejection as we all pranced around to his and his associates' fancy whim to participate in a bloodbath massacre.
Why is Mukherjee allowing family visits for a terrorist, a disgusting piece of an excuse for humanity? His case has been pushed back for so long, and these reports are falling in even as his case has been scheduled to start tomorrow. The news aired first on Times Now, and Shinjoy Chaudry, Senior Editor of Times Now, stated that this can be considered as good news since it confirms that Kasav is from Pakistan.

Aww, Pumpkin. You're missing one tiny little fact. This is Pakistan we're talking about. If they went out of their way to reject Kasav and all his cronies as Pakistani citizens, then it's just going to take Zardari and Gilani a few seconds to organize a fancy press conference and say that Kasav's 'mother' isn't a Pakistan citizen either. Then you're back to square one, kid.
So while this drama enfolds, I'm going to go see if I can renounce my own Indian citizenship stating 'utter shame' as my excuse.

So what would you have the government do ???
Deny the visit. I don't care if she comes to India (regardless of whether she really is his mother), it would be the heights of stupidity to let her see him in prison.
And moreover, it shouldn't be turned into a mode to prove Kasav's nationality or guilt. We know both, we don't really require much more information on that account.
I agree on that front. I was looking at the bigger picture - as in, what can the gov. do now? We have evidence of Pak's involvement and it's pretty much in the light with the US stamp, but more than that what can we do about this particular incident ? They're just going to deny the whole thing, and even the US is just looking to brush the whole episode under the carpet and make both countries resume 'peace' talks. Is there any scope for action?
