Tsunami Allegation !!!
After the recent tragedy of Dec 26 almost all Indians will be familiar with this word. I am sure that before this date not many would have even heard it in their lives. Today it is all over the newspapers and on the tip of everybody's tongues. I was listening to "Aaj Tak" yesterday and there was a news item related to the Anara Gupta case. The Forensic Science Laboratory Hyderabad had reported that the girl in the (in)famous CD was not Anara Gupta. In response to this report lots of human rights experts have jumped to her side. One guy was saying in the news item that it was a horrible mistake and was a kind of "tsunami" allegation that had been made against the poor girl's character. "Tsunami", a new word that our correspondents have lapped up. I am sure that the word will be used as an adjective for quite some more time.
Coming to the Anara Gupta case itself. Till yesterday all were pointing fingers at the girl and her family and suddenly today all have teamed up against the J&K police. The police in connivance with the CD mafia, had made use of the brand name of "Miss Jammu" to further the sales of the CD, and that the girl had confessed to the crime under duress, it is alleged. I just hope that this new development does not add to the publicity and cause the sales of the CD to skyrocket. I can just see some good-at-heart men declaring to their wives and girlfriends, "Get me the CD, I will support her cause, I will determine if she is the one or not".
This case however has a few things in common with the body-double incident that had come to light a year back. Remember Manisha Koirala and fellow conspirator Shashilal Nair? He made a movie with Manisha in the lead and shot a few scenes using a body double. Now the public was lapping up the movie anyway, but with Manisha declaring that she was not the one who had done "those dirty scenes", the movie was soon running to packed houses!! Now why Mr Nair chose to have a body double do those scenes is highly debatable, maybe Ms Koirala is not as hot as everybody expects her to be. But how would Mr Nair know about that?? Hmmmm...?? Anyway lets leave that thing. It is something that happened in the past.
Let's instead come to the forensic science lab Hyderabad. These guys have indeed done a commendable job and saved a girl's respect. I can just imagine the late nights they might have spent in the office over samosas and chai, viewing the CD. Since a viewing of one CD would have proved inconclusive I am sure more would have been ordered and viewed again and again. For sure, this demanding assignment would have caught the eyes of many more technical organisations in India such as the DRDO,ISRO. I am sure all of them would have liked to have such challenging and demanding assignments. Also on the recruitment front lot more youngsters will show keenness to join the forensic science lab, Hyderabad. All in all, good clean publicity for the organisation.
(Last seen, Kareena Kapoor was standing in a queue outside the lab with a mobile phone in her hand)
But one thought keeps coming in my mind, how exactly would they have proven that the girl is "not" Anara? I mean if you are given a Elbonian currency note and asked to prove that it is "not" a genuine Elbonian currency note, how would you do it? You for sure do not know how an original Elbonian currency note looks like. So the next simple thing to do would be to request for an original note and examine it in fine detail. Then you could compare the features with the counterfeit and say with confidence that it is a counterfeit. I just wonder how the forensic lab did their task. Did they... I mean.. like.... u know..... hee hee hee.... I just wanna know one thing, "Are these guys hiring???"
