Suspension of Justice Desmond Dcosta
The suspension of sitting Judge Desmond Dcosta has seen severe
resentment by many native Goans including lawers by their peaceful
demonstrations. His ethics, honesty and dedication which has been his
distinguishing characteristic all along have been impeccable. The recent
unprecedented act certainly raises a needle of suspicion on shadows out
for revenge for the well known fact that he has presided over high
profile cases of allegedly rape of a German minor and scarlett keeling’s
case at the children’s court where the kin of 3 heavyweights in North
and South Goa had been doing their rounds. Hence the role of any shadows
if at all involved should be thoroughly investigated. One of the major
challenges that Goans are facing is of increasing migrants taking over
Goans and it would be very shameful if proved that Goans themselves
collude to subdue and suppress honest and integral Goans who uphold
values and justice by their judgments.
