Very depressing. But most depressing is those Law Enforcers not enforcing the law but their own cultural opinions. Corruption.

Bikhair, that’s harsh. But you know that your impersonation of the wicked-witch of the west is unremarkable because, in South Asia, the opinion it encapsulates is widespread and the norm.

Whilst it may be a sad opinion from Bikhair, it is definitely the norm in the subcontinent, that’s the problem.

Bikhair @ #1: Yes, thats right, its all about the families at the end of the day. Why should they bring misery to their family when they can be so much more miserable by keeping their family happy, right?

I am assuming (hoping?) that your comment had nothing to do with the actual topic, which was an alleged murder and the response to that…which would have been more productive on your part.

Bikhair,

If I’ve read it right, that is quite a sad opinion you have posted.

Do we have to repeat this tale:

Bikhair:

“Love Love Love. A misunderstanding between two fools. Was what my momma told me as a youngin. They should have known better. Why bring misery to their families trying to live out some Bollywood fantasy. Plenty of decent people amongst their group.”

So the real criminals are two young people who fell in love. How dare they?! You seem to be justifying Rizwanur Rahman’s murder, on the basis that his wife’s family did not think he was suitable. Some people will want me to delete your comment, but I will leave it up.

Bikhair…that’s not exactly very nice.
“Plenty of decent people amongst their group” and that particular comment is just sick in light of what has happened….
