Well said, and well done. I totally agree with this sentiment, as I did with Selmas which arrived one after the other just now. Let us see now how many will disagree with one or both of you, after all you have both expressed exasperation with the way this so-called "investigation" is going with regard to searching this woman's body for evidence. Surely if there was to be any evidence, it would be some type of "stain" on her dress / sari / underclothes etc, not on or in her body. Assuming the child has not reached puberty, I doubt if they can chase after semen, but they appear to be ready with rubber suits, rubber gloves and goggles anyway! Idiotic to the extreme. Yes, I agree if there is case to be answered, or even if not then by all means go the DNA-way, do ALL tests and take up the case to its final conclusion, its after all a child involved here who has accused a teacher, albeit via the parent. The police think they have a case, so lets go, dont waste time. But please do it so that justice is SEEN to be done. Absolutely no point in naming & attempting to shame someone who is REALLY innocent. But if they ARE guilty, then its in the hands of the judiciary, not a howling mob that nearly killed that man last week who was accused of fondling a little girl (about the same age as his own daughter he was bringing to the same school), when found out he had to run to the police station for protection. Guilty, fine! Then do let the law do its job (you have my opinion on this previously, too long-winded to repeat it here), if innocent then what? Does he get compensated or does mud stick forever, maybe leave town for his own good? He is a married man with children of his own, be he & the family must relocate anyway, or he will find a horse's head on his pillow in the morning. But it was suggested by another poster, last week that as the sole bread winner in the family, it is customary in Goa to let off with a smack on the wrist. Is this true? It was posted on this forum that many of the guilty are not sentenced or given any help etc with this "dis-ease" ............ because they know someone or there is usually money "under the table" ?? Several views, and threads here which can be followed, but who will know the truth? When will the case(s) be brought up before a judge? Can someone keep a track on these two cases and report back on this forum? John Monteiro Berkshire, England ................................. Asked whether it can be established that the victim boy was assaulted by the lady tuition teacher, the Colva police inspector said that only when the teacher is arrested and subjected for medical examination the police be able to establish the truth.

QUESTION: What are they going to check the lady teacher for ? Skin under her finger nails, fluids that she might give ? If so this DNA testing thing, is far more advanced in India than in England where DNA was first discovered....... Gabe Menezes. ------------------------------------
