The assassinations of Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi shamed India's security set-up beyond description. The Special Protection Group, or SPG, has no option but to perform with perfection.
Eight months into the war, this is believed to be the first 'international' casualty to be reported. 46-year-old Waibhav Kale joined UNDSS two months ago ‘to make a difference’.
Even in the weeks leading up to Chamkila’s assassination there were massacres every other day. To airbrush all of this is sheer intellectual cowardice if not a crime.
