This week, I have been following two murder cases that shook us for their gruesome nature; The Neeraj Grover case from Mumbai and the Arushi Talwar case of Noida. The police was frantically trying to solve the mysteries. And by week-end, they solved either the cases, or at least one of them.
While the Neeraj case now seems to be a open and shut one, I still can't digest the police version on the Arushi case. The deceased girl's father has been arrested by the police, but I still want to wait and watch for some more dramatic revelations in the days to come.
Honour Killing and Passion Killings are the buzzwords. It is all about the survival of the fittest mind and body for all of us, as the conscience levels of our society is fast moving to the negative zones.
We are talking about inflation and the rising fuel prices, what about the rising levels of crimes by quantity and 'quality'? When I think about the future, try to foresee the living conditions of my kids, the world ahead of me… thoughts of this nature depress me and I get nervous.
It might sound very foolish; but is it foolish to think ahead as all kinds of evil minds are lurking out there in the darkness?

The Talwar case is a confusing one. Based on the public record thus far, it is difficult to ascertain whether these were dishonor killings.
And, no, I don't think it's foolish to think ahead.
