THE VICTIM'S SOUL STILL HOVERS AROUND FOR JUSTICE


Ansu (27) was the elder daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Kuruvilla, Mangalath, Moolavattom, Kottayam.
On 15-06-2000 she was married to Ribu John Varughis of Kollentayyath, Kidanganoor, Pathanamthita.
Ansu after her graduation had been working in an MNC in Chennai till the time of her marriage and Ribu, was a free lance Editor.
For the Marriage on demand, a dowry of Rs. 5 lakhs and gold ornaments worth more than 60 sovereigns were given. After their marriage she started staying with her husband in Hyderabad.
Ribu’s earnings were not sufficient to meet the household expenses. Financial constraints forced them to stay till 2001 in the one-room apartment which Ribu shared with his friend Chagla before his marriage. When Ansu secured a job, with Deloitte, they shifted on rent to flat A-3 Banjara Saman apartments, Road no.12, Banjara hills, Hyderabad.
Ribu was occasionally employed and Ansu’s parents gave the major financial support as and when demanded by them. In 2003 the company sent Ansu on an assignment to US and she returned to Hyderabad in 2004. With the money that she could save in the US and with the additional support of her parents she bought the same Flat, which she was staying on rent. Ribu was actually dependent on her during these periods, as he could not get any permanent assignment or get along with his employers.
In 2005 Ansu joined with another MNC ZAVATTA as a SENIOR TEAM LEADER with a salary of Rs. 50,000 per month. She had excellent rapport with her employers and colleagues. Now that she had settled with a good income, a flat furnished by her parents, a Santro car, a kinetic scooter etc., she decided to get pregnant.
She consulted a Doctor and was told that nothing was wrong with either of them and that she would conceive immediately. 
Her pregnancy test was scheduled on 29-06-06.
Ansu’s father Mr. Kuruvilla was with them from the 15th to 18th June 2006, for their 6th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY and she was very happy during this time. She wanted the support of her parents to shift to a three bedroom flat. On 18-06-06 evening Mr. Kuruvilla returned to Chennai to attend the birthday of Joshua, his second daughter’s son.
On 19-06-06 morning he reached Chennai and was arranging the transfer of shares worth Rs. 20,000 to Ribu’s name as Ansu had asked him to do so as her wedding gift to her husband. Ansu’s sister complained that Ansu or Ribu had not called up to wish her son on his birthday on 19-06-06. It was the practice of Ribu and Ansu to call up and wish on every occasion. It was a special birth day for Joshua as he just recouped from the verge of a serious sickness. So she sent a message to Ansu’s cell phone but there was no reply.
At about 1:00 pm Ribu called up Ansu’s father and informed him abruptly “Ansu committed suicide by hanging the previous night”. Her father immediately contacted Ribu’s brother, Rev. Ranji Varughis (Kidanganoor) a priest in St. Thomas Mount Marthoma Church, and informed him. Ansu’s father along with the family and Ribu’s brother took the 6:00 pm flight to Hyderabad and reached Ansu’s house at around 7:30 pm.
They were told that the body was kept in the mortuary by the police, and that he had to go to the police station to sign some papers. Immediately Ribu and his friends rushed her father to the police station.
On the way Ansu’s father enquired with Ribu what had happened and Ribu told him that the ‘MAIN DOOR OF THE HOUSE WAS LATCHED FROM OUTSIDE AND WAS OPENED BY THE POLICE WHEN THEY CAME’ after receiving his complaint. This made Ansu’s father believe that a third person had entered the house and murdered Ansu.
Ansu’s father passed on the information to the police that an intruder had murdered Ansu. The Banjara hills Police had not recorded his statement and made their own statements as if her father had told.
While he was in the police station, Anita, Ribu’s partner Mr. Hemant Apte’s wife Mrs. Anita Apte informed Ansu’s mother that there was a fight between Ribu and Ansu the previous night because of Chagla, Ribu’s childhood friend who came to their house after Ansu’s father left for the railway station on 18.06.06.
Ansu had asked Ribu not to entertain Chagla in the house because of his immoral character and she doubted whether Ribu had any homosexual relationship with Chagla. Chagla’s divorce after a LOVE marriage added to her doubts.
The previous week she had reprimanded Ribu for giving her car to Chagla without her knowledge and she took it back from him. Even from Ansu’s earlier talk, her parents knew that Ansu did not like Chagla’s presence in her house. Chagla also confirmed Anita’s version with Ansu’s mother late in the night on 19.06.06 that there was a fight between Ansu and Ribu because of him coming to the house. Later that night Ribu too admitted that he and Ansu had fought around 9:30 pm on 18-06-06 and he had thrown the remote control of the TV in anger. He also admitted that Ansu told ‘it is my car, my flat and I am the lady of the house…..’as her last dialogue to him.
On 20-06-06 morning at around 10:00 am Ansu’s father was taken to the post mortem wing of OSMANIA Hospital, but all his efforts to see the dead body of his daughter proved futile because neither Ribu nor his friends were revealing where the dead body was kept. No police officer was seen around. The MRO came late and started writing the inquest report. Ansu’s father told him that his daughter was murdered and the house was latched from the outside. While the MRO was noting down the details, the Postmortem Doctor called the father and informed him that the post mortem is over. Later on it was found out that the MRO had written CONTORTED statements deliberately supporting the culprits. Though he had recorded that somebody murdered Ansu, he had not taken any further steps required under law due to other considerations. The MRO had not seen the dead body, and moreover the postmortem was carried out before the father reached the mortuary.
A doctor who introduced himself as Dr. Janardhana Reddy informed Ansu’s father that Ansu had jumped from a height and her carotid bones were broken and death was instantaneous. When Ansu’s father refuted, he abruptly disappeared from the scene. Though Ansu's father was made to acknowledge the receipt of the dead body, the dead body was flicked away by Ribu to another mortuary at NIMS. Later it was learnt that no blood relatives had identified her dead body except a constable who had never seen her alive or dead.
Ansu was not made a church member and her burial posed problems. Finally without allowing anybody to see her face, she was buried on 21-06-06. The Priest of Marthoma Church Ramachandrapuram, Hyderabad later apologized that he had been misguided by Ribu’s brother and the Bishop to take a burial service without any medical report or police report contrary to the directions of the clergy manual.
Ribu was not revealing any other information as to the cause or motive behind her death. Her parents returned to Chennai on 22-06-06. The ACP, Mr. Rajagopal wanted to close the case and directed Ribu to ask the parents to talk to him. The parents were not given any details by the police about Ansu’s death, while they were in Hyderabad from 19th to 22nd June.
On 26-06-06 they reached the Banjara hills police station where the SI, Mr. Kishan Kumar took the father’s statement. The ACP tried to convince Ansu’s parents that their daughter had committed suicide without any supporting evidence, or the postmortem report. The Banjara Hills police refused to part with most of the information and adopted a totally negative attitude. Finally the Women’s Commission Chairperson interfered and only then they gave some of the relevant details. The Banjara hills Police refused to take the statement of Ansu’s mother and manipulated the statement given by Ansu’s father. The FIR was given by Ribu’s friend Mr. Apte who reached the scene of offence after the police had reached there.
The Banjara hills Police conspired and made an all out effort to fabricate/suppress/destroy evidences and removed the dead body from the scene of the crime before the parents reached Hyderabad by flight on 19-06-06 without any permission from the appropriate authorities, even with out an inquest report. They gave a clean chit to her husband even after seeing the body in a kneeling position, with the hair covering her face; her legs- one on a suitcase and the other positioned awkwardly, the insufficient length and the unusual knot of the duppatta and the latched main door from outside the flat while her bedroom was wide open with lights on.
The police did not even interrogate the husband though he was the only other person in the flat ‘seen her alive last and dead first’. The police ignored all these direct evidences and charged only section 174 CrPC violating all principles of natural justice and overlooking the directions laid down in the case of the death of a young lady with in 7 years of her marriage by the Supreme Court as well as by the DGP. All efforts to locate Dr.Janardhana Reddy who represented himself as a doctor during the post mortem, was in vain. There was no such doctor in Osmania hospital. He was a fake doctor, planted just to misguide Ansu’s father. The post mortem report dated 20-06-06 was made available on 30-06-06 which clearly spelt out an ante mortem injury of 6x7cms on the parietal occipital region of Ansu, indicating that she was subjected to cruelty before her murder. The post mortem report concluded that the IO should investigate and ascertain the cause of death.
The various utterances of Ribu contradicted which led to more controversies. The various commissions and omissions of the police, MRO and the postmortem doctors, as conspirators, were clear indications that they were influenced and bribed heavily and were deliberately trying to destroy all evidences of a murder. The police and some doctors tried to give new meanings to the contusion or head injury of 6x7 cms. Ansu’s father subsequently met the DGP who ordered a CB CID probe through WPC. The CID investigation revealed that the motive for her murder was her properties and hence the sections were altered on 31.08.06 from 174 CrPC to 304 B with 201 of IPC and DP Act 3 and 4.
The CID has recommended action against the MRO and the District Collector has been requested to confirm action contemplated against the MRO. On behalf of the Principal Secretary before the High Court the sworn statement of the CB CID says “ The CID recommended to take necessary disciplinary action against the concerned for procedural lapses identified in the case vide C. No.205/C 13/WPC / CID/2006 dt 29.12.2006. The concerned are dealt with under departmental action vide File No.L& O/ B 2/338/2007 of Commissioner of Police, Hyderabad City.” The CID leveled more than thirty charges against the SI and recommended him to be arrested and charge sheeted along with the accused.
The parents of ANSU wished to bring the mortal remnants of their departed daughter to Kerala, and give her a proper reburial in their family vault, with all rites and rituals, which was denied to her, violating all human rights, because, a service which was meant only for those who commit suicide was conducted on 21-06-06, with out any proof regarding the cause of death or getting consent from the parents of the deceased. As there is no death certificate or post mortem report or police report to show that Ansu committed suicide the parents questioned the rationale of the Bishop of the Marthoma Syrian Church Rt. Rev. Theodacious for ordering a surreptitious service meant for people who commit suicide. But no reply was forthcoming. The BHEL Marthoma Church contrary to the sabha constitution, under instigation of the episcopa refused to furnish the extract of the records of the church with reference to her burial, in spite of a legal notice and her parents being members of the Marthoma Church. It was evident that the Bishop was a party to the criminal conspiracy at the behest of the brother of accused, Rev. Renji Varughis. Both conveniently forgot the Christian dogmas and doctrines and the oath they took at the time of their ordination. They acted against the apostolic tradition, constitutional episcopacy and evangelical doctrine of the Marthoma Sabha. Finally the ego of the bishop brought the ignominy of being questioned by CBI and his secretary achen had to tell lies to CBI.
The mental agony imparted by these revelations was so great that the parents of Ansu were compelled to approach the Human Rights Commission against their church and Bishop. The church could not produce any Death certificate or postmortem certificate before the Human Rights Commission. Finally they submitted a manipulated copy of the death register which did not mention that a service meant for people who commit suicide was taken or any reference to the exhumation or re postmortem on 08.08.06.
The RE-POSTMORTEM carried out on her body revealed that all her internal organs were destroyed without sending them for forensic tests. Even the dress that she was wearing at the time of her death was destroyed leaving no clue to ascertain the cause of death.
The post mortem and repost mortem doctors differed in their views. AllMS was requested to look into the veracity of the postmortem reports and interpret them based on scientific facts. The negligence and dereliction of various government agencies reveal how justice is denied to the victim of dowry death while her husband continues to enjoy the property acquired by her hard toil. He banished her from the face of earth to take possession of her assets. On 4th December 2006 after about 6 months, Ribu was arrested and remanded to judicial custody. Apparently the prosecution underestimated their influence and Ribu got bail. In January 2007 the DSP- IO-CID , Dr. Vittal submitted his FINAL INVESTIGATION REPORT (FAR). This indicted Ribu, Chagla, the SI, MRO etc. as accused under section 302, 304 B, 201 of IPC. It also recommended severe action against the erring doctors also. Subsequently, Dr. Vittal was suspended which he alleged as the vendetta of the ADGP, CID who interfered with the administration of justice supporting the culprits.
On 09.08.07 the Addl. DGP submitted before the State Human Rights Commission that Ansu was murdered for her properties, her flat, her car, gold and other personal belongings which Ribu is still keeping with him.
According to the DGP “It is also established that the accused caused disappearance of evidence by creating a scene to make believe others that the death of the deceased is a suicidal one with an intention to escape from legal punishment. In this case the draft charge sheet is under scrutiny. The circumstantial evidence collected is sufficient to prove the guilt of accused Ribu.”
When the Charge sheet was delayed Kuruvilla approached the AP High Court. The CB CID to avoid the wrath and censure of the High Court suddenly wanted to conduct a Narco Analysis on Ribu. Though the Lower Court ordered to conduct it Ribu obtained a stay and both writs are pending with the High Court.
It took almost 6 months for AIIMS to release their report, re-establishing the HEAD INJURY. But the new IO, DSP CID Mr. Pawar because of the influence of the culprits deliberately manipulated the AIIMS opinion without forwarding the re postmortem final report and other key evidences to AIIMS in spite of a court order to forward both post mortem reports. This ignoble action of the IO, defeated the very purpose of an expert opinion from AIIMS and it proved the allegation of Dr. Vittal that there was an effort to hush up the case at the top level. Because of this manipulation the parents lost their confidence in the AP police and approached the Chief Minister to transfer the case to CBI. On 24th March 2008 the notification was issued. In the central ministry the file was not traceable for 3 months. Finally the CBI Chennai Spl . Crime Branch took over the files from AP police on 04.10.08.
All investigations established Ansu’s death as homicide at the fag end of their investigation. The SHRC directed the Collector Rangareddy to permit the father to take custody of the mortal remnants by dictating its order on 03.03.09.( copy yet to receive) The Metropolitan of the Marthoma Church permitted the reburial of the mortal remnants of Ansu at her paternal church at Kottayam.
Now, one of their struggles for 40 months was over. They obtained permissions from the court, the CBI, the church and other authorities to rebury the mortal remnants of Ansu at Kottayam and at last Ansu was reburied with all dignity and honour in their family vault atJerusalem Marthoma Church, Kottayam on November 1st 2009 in the presence of all her relatives and friends.
This is First time in the history of the Marthoma Sabha a reburial was done rectifying a wrong done earlier by the church, Subsequently Chagla the friend of Ribu was arrested by CBI and was in judicial custody for about 50 days. Presently he was let off on bail.
The enquiry was completed by CBI, and the charge sheet was forwarded to their director’s office at Delhi for approval. The anxious parents and relatives are waiting to know finally the outcome of CBI’s investigation.

JUSTICE FOR ANSU IS NOT VERY FAR

On 15th July 2010, on her birthday, the CBI filed the charge sheet against Ribu and his accomplice Chagla under IPC.302 for COLD BLOODED MURDER along with section 325- grievous hurt, 120B conspiracy and 201- supression of evidence.
The 14th court of Nampally- Hyderabad will now start the trial. The Police Officers who tried to subvert justice were recommended for stringent punishment by CBI at Govt: level.
Though Ansu’s parents are vindicated, a journey fraught with challenges is still ahead. They can still hear her voice pleading, “I want to live”. Hope the ray of hope for justice is not a mirage any more.
For the parents of ANSU justice delayed is not justice denied. They still believe:-‘Satyameva Jayathe’

Our prayers are with the family to continue the fight for Justice. The culprit should be given proper punishment. Think about Sr. Abhaya's case..you will be happy at the end, whatever time it may take.

it was heart breaking and could you imagine how many of our sisters are murdered like this.this family is getting justice only because of the efforts her parents and relatives are putting into it...why should the bastards like her hus ribu should marry a girl...he should be closed behind the bars for ever...and his brother so called marthoma achan should be beaten 100 times atleast..shame for the priesthood
our prayers are there with you mr kuruvilla and family..we can imagine the pain and hard times you have gone through.
May our almighty lord bless you all with his eternal peace and you can hope to meet your dear ansu on that beautiful shore oneday.God bless

Thanks for all your prayers..

Ansu has got really great parents... But my suggestion to Ansu's family is don't wait for Justice from anybody... Kill that Bastard... we have many quotation teams in Kerala / Andhra / Tamil Nadu. Approach them and finish his life along with his bastard brother (so called priest). Indian Judiciary is fully corrupted and will take a looooooong time to get the justice (can’t expect a justice in favor to u too.).Though that bastard is punished, Indian Judiciary will never sent him to sentence death... may be max of 14 years. After that he'll be released from Jail. Why does u want him to be alive like this? He may get a good treatment inside jail also (can’t say; as u know the Police is in favor of culprits all the time). Getting Justice from Indian court is like getting water in a Desert. But my wishes and prayers are always with Ansu's family. Let you get justice. I am quite sure Ansu’s soul rest in peace and she is seeing u all from heaven and is very happy seeing ur efforts.
I still wonder how come the Church also fell in the trap. I really don’t understand why Church is supporting the culprits as like same in Sr.Abhaya case. To be frank, after seeing many events, I am losing my beliefs. Don’t know whom I can trust?
I have an advice to parents. Don’t force your kid for a marriage if they don’t like to have and don’t force to marry the person she/ he don’t like. Please keep in touch with your children after marriage too (especially keep in touch with ur daughter always) to know what the daily happenings in the their new life to avoid this kind of disastrous events.
My question to the married couples is if you don’t like each other after marriage, why do you live together? Why can’t u go for a divorce? Why can’t you spend a life with the partner you like and you are happy with. I know; our so called ‘INDIAN CULTURE’ is against all this. But life is only once. We have to try to make it extra ordinary and lead a happy life till life ends. If our culture is against our happiness why do we want such culture that never gives happiness to our life? I recommend throwing that culture. I recommend throwing those beliefs. Life is not for culture or caste or to satisfy somebody. It is all about living happily with the culture, with the beliefs we have got from parents. Seeing our happy life others also will become happy.
Reba, one humble request... Please remove this photo as jayavinay said. We all like to see Ansu’s smiling photo to have a good picture of her. If you are really adamant to have this photo in the blog you can still keep it aside but please keep a close up photo of the smiling Ansu. Please.
Thank you.
A well wisher and good hearted person who wish the entire world live happily. 

The perseverance and tenacity of a father together with his family members is rewarded at last.

It is heartbreaking to see that even after being a successful professional, Ansu has this ordeal, then not to talk about millions of illiterate sisters.

Me, being the father of a 5 year old girl, fear the numerous pitfalls awaiting our girls.

I could feel the pain and agony of Mrs. & Mr. Kuruvailla, on losing their loving daughter and more so in being denied the justice.

I salute the determination of Mrs. & Mr. Kuruvilla in grabbing justice from the authorities. And I wholeheartedly share his grief.

I am sure that his determination and tenacity will deter many more Ribus & Chaglas (or anyone like them - Names are not relevant)from commiting odious crimes.

This is shocking. The police and politics are meant for bad things in our country. Its really painful to realize that even the priests, Bishops who are supposed to hold high moral and support for poor too just want money and pleasure.

I salute the great (and unlucky) father who is trying his level best to get justice to his daughter. His love affection and courage could not save the life of his beloved daughter. But this blog (and especially the painful picture - hanging Ansu) will help others to realize how horrible her end was.

There might be thousands of ladies facing these kind of issues. Lets wish good luck to all of them. This blog will give courage to stay away from bastards (sorry to use this word - but no other one is sufficient for him) like Ribu.

Please put a photograph Ribu and his "supporting" family. (probabily the Wedding photo) Let the world see their faces too.

Hats off to Ansu's parents for their patience and perseverance. As in Sister Abhaya's case,Ansu finally got justice. That is really great. Dowry death is the most heinous of crimes. Culprits of such practices should be given ample punishment. May her soul rest in peace finally.

Milton said...

To Ansu's parents and family...

You have done a marvelous job. Always truth will come out at the end. Whenever we loose that belief we looses everything. I appreciate you for the great patience and presence of mind for this battle. I really admire you for this.

Another thing which I noticed is this idea of releasing this information over the internet. Nowadays we cannot believe anybody, whether it be the police, or media or government machinery... All are bribed and cannot take into faith. In such a situation this is the best way to reveal the truth to the common public. This blog helped you to get the moral support from lot of people I guess.

Whoever seeing the photograph of the hung girl would not say that its a suicide. The photograph is bit heart breaking. But I request you should not remove it. Let the world know what is happening here...

I will remember you in my prayers. Let her soul rest in peace.

it was really heart breaking to see Ansu who was Intelligent and smart in this way. I shall remind you people of India where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is in an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob, and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe. It is such a shame criminal are roaming freely after doing Heinous Crimes...Drag them to public, media in each and every possible manner. Our inborn sense of right and wrong demands that an injustice be corrected. It is sad to see that even the priests, Bishops who are supposed to hold high moral values and kindness for poor too just want money and pleasure these days. Wake them up too. When you are offended must take revenge..May God Bless You ALL

We understand the agony and pain suffered by her parents. We will of course join hands to bring the criminals behind her death to justice. Even if they escape somehow, they cannot escape eternal judgment and condemnation. So, I request those behind the scene to repent and surrender to God and to justice.

Condolence to the parens of dear Ansu, the picture itself clearly confirming that it is a murder, no one can hang and die in this position where her foots are touched the wall, this is a brutal murder, but I dont know justice will help the parents, if they have money and power you will not get any justice in India, SHAME ON INDIAN JUSTICE, Ex: Sister Abhaya's murder. May Ansu's soul rest in peace

Dear Father,

Just remember that god is there, No one can escape from his court.
May her soul rest in piece.

Though we have the best investigation force in the world should say that we are the worse who can only dance to the tune of someone else. Those who might have escaped from the court of law will never escape forever from the heavenly Lord. Let the Lord strengthen the family on this ocassion. - ben/riyadh-ksa

hi
hats of to ansu's parents for their unrelenting pursuit of justice .
the details of ansu's death are indeed shocking and it has stirred a hornest's death. among the many things that baffles me is the support given to a criminal fag by his achen brother. The shadowy games of the clergy once again questions the credibility of institutionalized religion. Another doubt that raises its head is that if ansu believed her husband to be gay why did she remain with the sodomizer? at least the poor girl could have remained alive.

may ansu's soul rest in peace !
great work mr.kuruvilla.may God grant your family the strength to endure this ordeal!
You also happen to be my mother's first cousin.

please remove the fotos from net.. especially the hanged one.. really scared.. may not be to you as it is your daughter.. people shouldnt post this types of fots in net.. and please dont encourage the same...let her single foto or marriage foto be there..

i've seen many people requested you the same Mr.Kuruvilla from their comments. Putting this 'hanged foto' in the blog doesnt give u anything other than make scared of others who really wish to read the blog.

i've seen ur daughter's comment "Sorry about the photo..this photo was put up not to degrade her or shame her but to let people know that even after 3 yrs there is no justice.." do u really think this foto being in the blog gives you justice? Your blog itself is great to understand people that justice is denied to u and it is a clear murder.

try to understand from others point of view..

Thanks for your understanding..

Dear Sir Kuruvilla, my prayer always with you, don't worry if u won't get justice here in this bad world, in final judgement I believe you can see your innocent girl with the same smile ,also you can see the bastard in front of the lord , and he will get the maximum punishment.

I THANK everyone of you for giving your moral support to the family and keeping them in your prayers.

Many of you have requested to remove the photo. But this photo speaks much louder than words about the injustice meted out to her.

If I remove this photo the blog becomes just another story. Only this photo bears testimony of what the family has been going through.

Hi,
Some of the unanswered questions that come to mind:-
How did Ribu use the money he got from Ansu. Was he an alcoholic?
Was he addicted to drugs?How was it that he had so much influence to subvert the cops and docs?

I am so happy at the developments. Thank God..and Finally I think Ansu's soul will get the justice it deserves. All her friends and family knew she had been a victim of wrongdoing,and now it will be out there on the records!

Dear Mr. Kuruvila,

It was heartbreaking to hear the series of incidents from the brutal murder of your beloved daughter. It is really un-belivevable that the church authorities including the Bishop has been sheltering the culprit. It is only due to the extra ordinary determination and courage shown by you which has finally brought justice. I fear how many of our daughers will have to face such tragic end in future ? This case should be an eye opener to everyone including the parents as well as the judiciary.

May her soul rest in peace. May the Lord shower his eternal peace upon you so that you can take this case till its sucessfull end.

No legal punishment will be sufficiant.

In the case of a death like this, usually the police will arrest and interrogate the husband even if he is not in the premises.
But here the police arrives at the scene before any one informs them because of their intuition, opens the latched door without obtaining the finger prints, looks at the dead body, affirms that it is a suicide by observing the posture of the body, then consoles the husband who claims to have been sleeping till 12.30 afternoon (for more than 15 hours)with out knowing his wife's death

What an ironical situation.

The crime investigation, of course has been revolutionized by our super cops.

Finally Justice done. Its sad that Ansu's so called husband Rebu is still free.

I can't understand one thing why Ansu had to bear this idiot for 6 years.Being an educated girl she should had informed her parents about her husband's activities and applied for divorce.

May her soul rest in peace!!

May be she had seen the 'naked face' of that criminal only on that day. The fear of her getting a divorce and leaving him penniless or telling the world the ugly truth of his real character had forced them to kill her.

The profession of a priest is a noble one as he chooses to serve the needy and to bring back the wrong doers in the right path. But there are a few who think it only as their livelihood. He tried to save his brother as any other human being.

Just because one person has done a wrong thing we cannot condemn everyone. Most of the priests do selfless services to the society.

I don't deny that Ansu's case has come to this level because of the relentless efforts of her father. But there must have been many uncorrupted officers in every department who had helped him directly or indirectly.

Well its true that in this case the marthoma achans ignored their calling as priests and tried to cover up the truth.. & fr renji misused his position used his clout to side up with the bishop to subvert justice ...quite a stinking messy situation...mixing religion & politics...Sometimes its appalling the way the church shields their leaders from facing the punishment of the sins they commit...leading to a loss of faith in these wolves in shepards clothing...so much of this revolves on the money these achans mobilize and the worldly pursuits reducing them to mere skin deep holy men.

I wonder if ansu indicated that something was wrong during the fifth year of their marriage with Ribu and why they were prolonging having children ... and whether if they quarelled about anything except chagla...did ribu drink or indulge in other extravagances? Ansu might have mentioned some of these with her sister of her family.

Anyways hats off to mr kuruvilla for his dogged persistence despite the passage of years to get justice...

Ansu believed she was pregnant when she died and her pregnancy test was scheduled on 29th June. Her doctor had assured her this. It was on 17th June early morning that I last saw her in office. She told me that she does not want to miss eating those tablets which the fertility doctor had prescribed for her and as usual giggling she swallowed them.
She refused an offer to go to the USA a second time because her priority was to become a mother.

How could a person like Ribu manage so many people-- the police at all levels, his friends who knew her character, the church, the doctors, the other officers involved- something not jiving up. Is there something more to it than it appears?Is it an organized crime? Is he a seasoned criminal? Are there more people involved in the murder and covering up?

Is killing or eliminating somebody a solution to the problem? If u think u cannot get along with someone try not to cross his path. Get out of their lives. Leave them to fend for themselves. Only cowards will stab from the back. The crude way of justice God chooses will be unexpected and he will pay you in the same coin. Why do we have to leave our posterity to reap the consequences of our wrong doings? Everyone around you, your parents, relatives, friends- all are affected by your actions. You are a hero till you are exposed. Once you are caught, the society condemns you and alienates you. And you have already dragged all your dear ones into this slime. When God has bestowed you with the power to discern right and wrong why degrade yourself to the status of a beast.

The hanging picture of Ansu will tell the world how an innocent ambitious girl has been done to death and how the conspirators could almost escape with the help of power and money.
In the same way the culprits will be branded wherever they go and will be recognized for their inhuman act.
Will that in any way bring remorse in their minds?
