A total of four police personnel, including three Thursday, have been arrested in the case pertaining to the deaths of Jayaraj and Bennix due to alleged police torture.

These judges seem to have their brains in the wrong place. A policeman killed in the line of duty and a shopkeeper and his son killed in custody by policemen are not comparable. The criminals who killed the policeman are not paid public servants and if the policeman had killed them during the shootout nobody would have mourned for them. The honourable judges should go back to school (different from the one they went to) and learn the basics of reason and logic.
