Ferozepur, April 23, 2013: The former Director, CBI and member Interpol, Joginder Singh, on his visit to his home town at Jalalabad, while speaking to the media persons said, the increase in crime against women is due to weak judicial system introduced during the period of British.
He was accompanied by Dr. Tilak Raj, social worker, Gurbachan Singh Madan, prominent Punjabi writer, Dev Raj Sharma, National Awardee teacher, Kashmir Singh Chawla, former Tehsildar and Dyal Singh Pyasa, former President Sahit Sabha.
Joginder Singh pointed out that the anti-rape Bill to stop the rape with the women is mockery with the people as it has no sanctity without the amendment in the judicial system. There is a need to decide the heinous crime of rape within three months with maximum punishment of death sentence.
He, however, admitted that CBI works under the centre government and CBI should be given the autonomous charge. Stating the five year imprisonment to the noted firm star, Sanjay Dutt too less, he should be given the maximum punishment as per the law, he added.
In reply to the question over the increase of terrorist attacks in the country, he said, “The centre government is keeping a very low budget on the security of the country. The job of installing of CCTV cameras in the capital of India has not yet been completed besides on roll of only 50,000 employees with the intelligence agencies for the internal security of the country which is too less in comparison to the population of the country.”
Joginder Singh further said, “In case the whole of the country is brought under the surveillance of CCTV cameras by making the intelligence system so strong like that of America, the terrorists’ attacks in the county can be stopped.”
In another reply to the question about the delay in submitting the closure report and solving the biggest murder mystery of ‘Arushi murder case’, he said, “Due to the mistake of Noida police, there had been delay in bringing on surface before the public, the details of the case as the case was transfer after 15 days of the incident and the delay was because of lack of evidence.”
