There has been a rise in crimes against women and senior citizens in Mumbai. In fact, some statistics that say the crimes in Mumbai in 2011 has even surpassed Delhi’s crime records. Women have been attacked on local trains, senior citizens, mainly women, have been murdered. The recent Amboli case where a couple of youths were killed in broad daylight is also a testimony that crime-rate is increasing in Mumbai. Shops and banks have been brazenly robbed. Not to mention, that Mumbai has been increasingly weighed down by bomb blast in 2011.
The crime rate in Mumbai has been on the rise. The latest incident of Keenan and Rueben being brutally killed is yet another instance of how lawless the city has become. The minister of state for home & the police commissioner should hang their heads in shame for not trying to build the confidence of people and women in particular, after this incident.A strong deterent in the form of quick conviction in a fast track court should be ensured by the police by building strong case and providing justice to the families of the victims. if a couple is seen sitting in a park or roaming around the cops start harassing them booking them and extorting money from them, But when these goons harass women no cop is seen in that vicinity these things often happen . It clearly shows that the cops are hand in gloves with these goons.
A woman on the basis of anonymity says, “As a woman it is a routine that we have go to through. Being pinched, touches, bruised and being on the receiving side of lewd comments. , in buses, on train stations. How much will you scream back and how muh will you fight these hooligans?. I once got slapped back when i slapped a man who felt my backside. The others just looked on... Now i'm scared to fight back... What if something even worse happens to me..and strangely this incident happened in front of a police chowky... the only thing i do now is to abuse them and humilate them in public... but they just walk on remorseless...”
