Sir,
It was sickening to read about the episode
involving Azeez Sait who
smoked cigarettes at public functions on August 11th and again on the
Independence day in utter violation of the ban on smoking in public. In the
first incident, he smoked right under the nose of the Home Minister and what is
more the DGP & IGP of Karnataka, even as the authorities looked on
helplessly.
This emboldened him to repeat it on the solemn
occasion of the Independence Day with mocking impunity. While the cigarette epitomizes
the utter lack of decency and the disregard of the law on the part of the
crooked politician who has been a law unto himself all his life, the law-enforcement
authorities are also to blame for winking at him. It is their pusillanimity in
dealing with law-breakers like Azeez Sait and others of his ilk which is
responsible for the criminalization of our polity.
Barring a few exceptions, this crooked
politician has treated police
officers and law-enforcement authorities with scant respect. It is only people
like Ex-DGP Dinkar, former DSP Mr.Abdul Karim and the slain police officer
M.Shakeel Ahmed who have had the guts and gumption
to show him his place during their stints as police officers at Mysore and
elsewhere.
One hopes Sait is dragged out of his seat the
next time he smokes in
public or whenever he is found breaking a law, if only to uphold the rule of
law.I urge the cops not to allow the cigarette-puffing Sait to become the
role-model for the citizens of this country, especially for the youth.
Thanking you,
yours sincerely,
M.Jameel Ahmed,
