It was on this day in 1962 that a girl of 12 years was killed by Indian
soldiers in the small seaside village of Bogmalo. The tragic incident

I landed in Goa in June 1962. In 1962, this story was very much alive. Now
after approximately 50 years since my return, I can still recall the sense
of outrage against the thugs of the Indian Army who did this dastardly
deed. On the other hand, there was a view in circulation that this was a
