Who would be responsible if a Psycopath released on interim bail, commits another ghastly crime?
Vikat Bhagat who brutally raped and murdered Danielle McLaughlin, applies to High Court, seeking interim bail to attend his sister's wedding. Who is the Joker?
Vikat Bhagat of Canacona, who brutally raped and then even more brutally murdered Danielle McLaughlin of Ireland, has made an application to Honourable High Court of Bombay at Goa, to grant him interim bail, in order to attend his sister's wedding.
Vikat Bhagat first moved the bail application at the District and Sessions Court of Margao, where the trial has been going on for past 6 Years and 7 months almost now.
Presiding Judge Her Lordship, Smt Kshama Joshi rejected the application of Vikat, citing Honourable High Court's order of July 2023; while hearing another of the accused' s bail application. The order was passed on 9th February 2024.
Vikat in another attempt, is trying to pull a Kuldeep Sengar at Goa.
Kuldeep Singh Sengar a politician, was expelled from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 2018 after being convicted of raping a minor girl in 2017.
In 2023, the Delhi High Court granted him interim bail to attend his daughter's wedding. This decision was met with criticism from many, who argued that it was inappropriate to allow a convicted rapist to be released on bail for any reason.
Sengar was sentenced to life imprisonment for the rape in 2018. He was also convicted of the custodial death of the victim's father, and sentenced to 10 years in prison for that crime.
The Delhi High Court's decision to grant Sengar bail was based on the fact that his daughter was getting married and that he had promised to return to jail after the ceremony.
However, common people felt that this was not a sufficient reason to release a convicted rapist, and that Sengar should have remained in jail.
Danielle McLaughlin was the eldest of 6 daughters, who affectionately used to call them "My Girls".
Danielle could not attend the wedding of any of her sisters and shall never be able to do so.
She was so brutally murdered, that her sisters could not even take a good look at her face one last time, as her face was disfigured by smashing it with beer bottles.
The same person who is on trial for such a ghastly crime, beyond human reasoning, is now asking to be released to attend his sister's wedding? While the accused and his lawyer have the right to move the application; the whole absurdity of it is hilarious.
And it's not such that the conduct of Vikat Bhagat has been exemplary during this trial, which has been prolonged due to his and his lawyer's Dilly dallying tactics, taking the full advantage of legal loopholes.
How gross his conduct has been during this trial, is mentioned in the 9th February 2024 order of District and Sessions Court of Margao.
The lawyer of Vikat would have argued that being the lone son in the family, it is necessary for him to be present in the absence of his father.
While the fact is that, while committing this ghastly crime, he did not even once thought about his family; what kind of eternal shame, pain and anguish it would bring to them. Now, applying bail in compassionate grounds.
Danielle also wanted to attend wedding of all her sisters, but this right of hers was snatched away in the most brutal manner, beyond any comprehension.
Now, why this opportunity should be provided to the accused of her brutal rape and murder?
Vikat Bhagat going by his history even before March 2017, was a Psychopath.
With his conduct, with Danielle McLaughlin, he amply proved that fact again.
Trying every trick in the book to delay and prolong the trial, much to the anguish of victim's family and friends; the Psychopath is trying to seek some leniency from the High Court, again.
One who had no fear of the rule of law while outside prison, and continued to make the mockery of law enforcement and judicial system while in custody; is seeking interim bail on compassionate grounds?
Did you hear of a better joke, this February?
Danielle had rights too.
Right to live.
Right to be treated with dignity.
Right for justice.
Where are the rights of Danielle McLaughlin and what happened to them?
If this interim bail happens, it would be butt of a joke eternally and people would lose the faith in Indian judicial system, not only in India, but abroad also.
Psycopaths who try to rule over law enforcement and judicial system with the power of money by buying out Goa Police Jail Officials and others; hiring lawyers who try everything in the book to prolong the trial; should not be let out.
Just Like Rabid dogs.
Instances where an accused on trial for a brutal rape and murder case has been granted bail to attend his sister's wedding in India are extremely rare, if not virtually nonexistent.
Courts typically prioritize public safety and the seriousness of the charges when considering bail requests, especially in cases involving violent crimes.
Vikat Bhagat was granted interim bail once already at the demise of his father. Being a lone son, it was his duty to cremate his father, as per Hindu customs. But attending his sister's wedding is a totally different scenario.
Granting him bail in such circumstances would likely be highly controversial, in the absence of compelling and exceptional circumstances.
Who would be responsible, if Vikat Bhagat disappears and commits more rapes and murders?
A Psycopath, who has no guilt or remorse for his crime,no respect for the rule of law or judiciary,won't stop at one.
