Why the police chief is silent? Please law and order minister suspend OIC and police chief.

no one had mislead the police but police had grabbed confessions by using force threat and inducement. blame these police officers.

How about testing everyone where all thieves, drug lords, murderess , rapists, hang out. Not the jail, try the Parliament

It is now become very clear that people are subjected to torture by police and get statements forcibly as police wants them and make them public that the statements are confessions. .

Do not given consent. the police must establish reasonable cause based on provable facts to seek a warrant to force someone give their DNA for testing.

mohan Thursday, 08 October 2015 04:38 PM

should have done test without publicity,

FIRST CHECK THE ACCURACY AND PRECISION OF THAT GENETIC ANALYZER (DNA TESTER).

Labby Thursday, 08 October 2015 06:12 PM

So those who had confessed to the killing have in fact mislead the police?

Shan Thursday, 08 October 2015 05:35 PM

It is evident now that our local resources are not equipped to conduct this case.

I need to have my full body check-up, can the CID get it approved by the magistrate free of charge as my insurance is not covered on this.

Justin c Thursday, 08 October 2015 05:18 PM

his and the grandfathers DNA should have been checked before checking the others. I am sure kondaya his brother and seyas farther all are in the same clan who are involved in committing this sort of crimes in the past

Why was this not done before subjecting others to torture? Common sense would have been to suspect those closest.

Not Father Grand Father
