How to get away with murder

Thread

With less than 50% conviction rate overall and even less in heinous crimes like murder, the police chargesheet is the playbook for ‘getting away with murder’ I write on the recent acquittals in murder trials in #Chennai Mahila court. @dt_next In last two months, verdict was given in seven murder cases, four of them ending in acquittal. It is unlikely that #Chennai police would take up these cases for re-investigation.But the victims- a 4 y/o child, a young widow who left behind her two children are robbed of justice
