Hats off to the four SC judges who are finally speaking up for Justice Loya -- who died in mysterious circumstances. Loya was hearing the sensitive Sohrabuddin fake encounter case

All 5 acquitted in Mecca Masjid case. Well done NIA, the new 'caged parrot'. What else can one expect. Even rape accused arrested only after public protests. We can only mourn the hollowing out of our institutions
