Is punishment only for offenders or also for those who aided, abetted?


 

After the nearly 30 years companion, confidant and aide of Chief Minister Jayalalitha, Sasikala and her relatives were suddenly subjected to expulsion from her Poes Garden residence and ADMK, there is a spurt in the complaints against them to the police; the complaints relate to crores of rupees of corruption, extortion, cheating etc., The police take actions on those complaints in lightning speed and also resort to arrests. Police take action on the complaints, register cases, and immediately arrest the concerned.
v Are proper investigations carried out on those complaints?
v Were investigations completed just in a day?
v If they were arrested on the very next day of receiving complaints, is there any ulterior motive?
v Was there any reason for the arrest of Sasikala’s husband M.Natarajan all of a sudden on the day Sasikala came to the Bangalore Special Court for her deposition in the Disproportionate Assets case?
v Is it only because of his arrest that Sasikala accepted in the court that Jayalalitha had no role in the case?
v Was Sasikala threatened to depose like that or else her husband would be arrested?
v Was it only because she refused to depose like that in the court that the complaint against Natarajan itself was obtained in haste? What is happening in the State?
v Is the law and order situation in the state is such that anyone can give complaints against anybody and the very next day the person can be arrested and lodged in jails?
v Were not all those who arrested now, were under the custody and protection of the Chief Minister for the past several years, particularly during the last nine months?
v If people very close to the Chief Minister had committed offences during the last nine months, was this regime passively witnessing all those things?
v Did not the government’s intelligence wing found out all these things and taken to the notice of the Chief Minister?
v Is it true that on realising before hand that punishment is imminent in the on-going Disproportionate Assets Case trial nearing completion, that this regime is making efforts to make some others as scapegoats to escape punishment? Or not?
v Is punishment only for those who commit offences?  Or is it applicable to those aid and abet?
v Who were abetting them to muster courage to commit offences?
v Having for years joining with them and committing offences after offences, and now trying to escape making only them as scapegoats; is it (legally) acceptable?
v When those who were in connivance for the offences are now giving confessions, should not action be taken against those who incited, aided and abetted the offence?
v Many have given complaints of having given crores of rupees as bribe for getting so many works done. Where did the money go? Who is responsible for it?
v When confessions for buying properties worth several crore are coming forth, what are the actions against those who acquired those properties?  Where from did they get money to buy them? What were all the irregularities committed in return for those moneys?
v In her deposition before the court, Sasikala is reported to have conceded that the purchase of TANSI land was true, and that the then Managing Director of TANSI, Srinivasan, on his own, came forward and offered 55 ground land to Jaya Publications. The then TANSI Managing Director Srinivasan was a senior IAS officer. How can he come forward on his own and offer 55 ground government land to Jaya Pubications?  Will an IAS officer do like this without the Chief Minister asking him to do so?
v The TANSI land case went upto the Supreme Court and the SC judges themselves in the verdict ordered for the return of the land to the government. Can anybody make a Chief Minister as a dormant partner and indulge in all acts desired by them?
What are the answers of the ADMK regime for all these?        r
