Cancel bails of All Murderers

LJP MP booked for murder in Bihar

Patna, May 12 : Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) MP Surajbhan Singh has been booked for the killing of a man who was the main witness of a murder for which the Bihar politician was sentenced to life imprisonment, police said Tuesday.

Nago Singh and his grandson were shot dead by unidentified people near Barauni in Begusarai district, about 126 km from here, Sunday night.

Last year, Surajbhan Singh was convicted and sentenced to a life term for the Jan 16, 1992 murder of Rami Singh, a resident of Mathurpur village. Nago Singh, in his mid 70s, was the prime witness in the case.

On Tuesday night, a police case was registered against the MP for the murder of Nago Singh and his grandson.

Police sources in Begusarai said Nago Singh had received death threats before the pronouncement of judgement in the murder case in June 2008.

Surajbhan Singh is currently out of prison following the acceptance of his bail petition by the Patna High Court. He faces several criminal charges, including those of murder, extortion, kidnapping and looting.

After the court rejected the MP's plea to suspend his conviction in a criminal case and allow him to contest this year's Lok Sabha elections, he managed to field his wife Veena Devi from Nawada constituency.

I have been repeatedly saying that persons who have been convicted of crimes like rape. murder, terrorism, extortion should not be given bail for they go out and threaten, browbeat, bribe and if all that fails, then kill the witnesses.
We are seeing just that happening above.
The judge who gave bail to Surajbhan Singh should be tried for abetting murder.
Only that will prevent judges from giving bail at the drop of a hat.
The bails of all persons who are accused of the above crimes should be cancelled immediately and they should be sent back to prison.
