I am dumb struck and I feel so shameful and helpless. I wish I could do something -- but I dont know what and how to do it. Maybe I can just try to spread the word around. I request each one of you to please read this article by Arundhati Roy on the Parliament Attack case and how evidences that were brought against the prime accused Afzal guru were mostly fake and doctored. Also, read the letter written by Afzal Guru's wife, Tabassum which was published in Kashmir Times.
PS: I FOUND THIS BLOG WHERE THE AUTHOR HAS SUGGESTED WHAT WE CAN DO ON OUR PART. FOR NOW, I HAVE SIGNED ON THE ONLINE PETITION AGAINST THE DEATH PENALTY -- I DONT KNOW HOW USEFUL THIS IS, BUT I WOULD RATHER DO WHATEVER I CAN. I WOULD REQUEST YOU TO SIGN AS WELL BECAUSE IT WAS QUITE DISAPPOINTING TO SEE THAT I WAS THE 1561st PERSON TO SIGN THE PETITION. INDIA, HAVING A POPULATION OF BILLIONS, 1561 IS REALLY DISHEARTENING.

Chanced on your blog in my search for material on Afzal Guru. I have signed the petition with a comment. My anger and sadness at Guru's plight comes not merely from the injustice being perpetrated on him, but also from the fact that my older brother Dr. Binayak Sen has also been locked up for more than a year on the basis of the state's fabrications against him. Please see my blog http://gyanoprobha.typepad.com .
Its nice to have you stop by my Blog. Yeah, first Dr. Sen and now filmmaker-activist, Ajat TG has been arrested. It is dis heartening to see all this happening right in front of our eyes. Terrible.
