Indian Law Prevents Authorities From Saving Suicidal Man (Shocking Story)

Please read that full article so you can understand the full extent of this story. Heinous and unspeakable act aside, can you believe that an Indian law prevented authorities from breaking into the suicidal man's room in order to save him? I mean, holy shit, are you kidding me? I can't believe that little factoid was glossed over in the article. So instead of intervening and trying to save the dying man, they just let him bleed out. I mean, after all, that's the law. I know there are some pretty wacked-out laws in foreign countries, I get it. This law itself may not even be that bad compared to some others out there. But how it applied to this story, and how it affected this story- this is outrageous. India is ******ed.

Thoughts?

Hi kid.

I didn't see any details as to why such rule exists. But if you think it came out of nowhere and is a stupid rule then I'll let you guess who is ******ed. (Red rep coming by the way remind me in a week's time for that). Man was hallucinating by the result of drugs from what I gather. But there is a reason why a said rule exists. The Indian Authorities didn't invent it to see 'pinky bleed in front of his family'. And the fact that even in the Oxford link, the rule isn't detailed much just stinks of prejudice without premise. "Hey look he died, and the Indians had this law that made them not go in OMG WTF, Indya sux" There, good?

Wtf are you talking about? Your post is horribly incoherent. Yes, I am bashing India for a stupid law and for being so close-minded when they could have saved a person's life. If you disagree with that, then you are being terribly close-minded.

I swear, I don't know what Paper Ghost is saying half the time. Actually, like 9/10 of the time.

I didn't understand a fucking word of that.

Like it or not, man, the Indian authorities could have saved a man from dying and didn't because of a rule that exists in their constitution. That IS ******ed.

Wait, what the fuck is this law people are talking about? I read the article but I do not get it.

There was an Indian law that prevented authorities from breaking in. So instead,they stood outside the door and let the man bleed out and die. Just following the rules.

Absolutely re-tar-ded.

Who cares. There's another 7 billion people on Earth, what is one person's life worth nowadays?

why care about trayvon martin, then. but people do. a lot of people do.

What law? The article is quite vague on that aspect.

Also, I don't see how one law makes an entire country ******ed

I'm not sure either, but I guess it has something to do with not being allowed to break-and-enter...... even when it's a life or death situation. And obviously I'm being facetious. But my point still stands, this is crazy.

 

[JGlass]

Who cares. There's another 7 billion people on Earth, what is one person's life worth nowadays?

The world's GDP is roughly 62.12 trillion dollars, or 62,120,000,000,000. The world's population is estimated to be 7.008 billion, or 7,008,000,000. If you divide the world's GDP by the world's population, the life of one person is worth about $8,864.

At least I think that's right. I might have flubbed the math. It's pretty late and I'm pretty tired, and I feel like I might have used too many 0s. $9,000 seems pretty damn high considering that half of Africa is starving.

Also, I don't see how one law makes an entire country ******ed

I don't know if the idiom carries over in other languages, but generally when Americans say something like, "India is ******ed," it refers to the powers that be in the country. So don't take it personally if you are Indian, I'm sure PlayTheGame is referring to your government and lawmakers, not your mother.

I didn't understand a fucking word of that.

And my post is a success.

Know why? Because that article is incredibly coherent. And now you know how I feel. You read the article, and they say 'Coz Indian law doesn't permit it' ;In any country you can raid any house if you have a warrant. Those are the rules right? What I don't get it as the man lay there dying who other than his family in UK knew? And how long did it take for them to actually inform the UK authorities who then informed the local authorities in India. It sounds like an incredibly long process which consequently seems like a moot point in the end coz it was too late.

I have seen and heard stories of police forcing there way into an apartment when they have a warrant of sorts. In this case, the amount of time killed him.

Hell I have seen police pulling suicidees from ledges' of their apartment! This law is bent many many times.

The police in India are a fucking joke. I'm Indian and my ethnicity was heavily persecuted from 1984-1992ish under the false pretense of terrorism. Indian police raided homes, raped innocent women, beat innocent men and destroyed entire villages under the pretense of terrorism. Indian police will accept a $1 USD bribe for anything, from public intoxication to driving without a license, but they'll harass, threaten, intimidate and torture people into signing false confessions - again, under the false pretense of terrorism.

Fuck the Indian police. They're modern day Keystone cops. Youtube is filled with documentary footage of these bastards beating innocent people for no reason. Everyone in India knows the Indian police are full of shit.

That's problem number one I have with this article - from my experience and hearing stories about Indian police, I would bet they didn't know first aid and that's the reason why they didn't do anything (also, there's no sympathy for mental illness in India, so the fact that he killed himself while having some sort of episode was probably a cause for apathy for the cops).

My second problem with this article - some fat rich Anglo-Saxon businessman kills himself in India and the news story is about something else? What about the fact that this fucker went crazy and killed himself? Why is that not the point of the article? Is ostracizing the socio-judicial infrastructure of an exotic "developing country" absolutely necessary? If this happened in the States, they'll talk about the one officer responsible from Buttfuck, Missouri who made the decision. They wouldn't write a story saying "American officer allows foreign national to die", or "Canadian Mountie failed to prevent casualty", so why is the thrust of the article about "Indian laws" and "Indian police"? I know I probably sound like a hypocrite, but being Indian, I can talk about it on a firsthand basis. The HuffPo article is designed to get page hits, and scandalize this foreign and mysterious land.

It might be because I'm tired, but I call shenanigans on this article. And fuck the Indian police.

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

Well it's official, I have a stiffy.

 

[GI Cake]

I don't understand the article. Is their a law in India that doesn't allow the Police to bust in a stop a dude from bleeding out in his private home?

No they have these in India-

Huh, I guess it is my mistake for asking a question in the GSD and expect an actual response from you. Carry on.

I agree with most of what you say about the Indian police. But in most cases, they just follow the orders from the politicians and bureaucrats. Agreed that they took it too far during the emergency. The reason they take bribes is because of their pathetic salary. You can't feed a family with a salary of less that 10,000 rupees.

 

[Hulk Hogan's Brother]

The whole story sounds horribly made up if you ask me. I doubt if the Indian cops would not break into a home especially if the cops from UK told them that this guy was of unsound mind. Something is missing here.

The Indian police sucks but people do take the safety of foreigners seriously. I doubt if they would have ignored orders from the police in UK. They are a corrupt lot but they take instructions from people in power, wealthy people and foreigners seriously. I agree with Peoples' Champ though, this article looks like it has been written specifically to defame the socio judicial system in India. I mean look at some of the comments for that article. Some dude actually believes that burning women is allowed or something like that.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

I really want to know exactly what this law is, or if something is being lost in translation here. A British paper again mentions the law but don't go into detail about what exactly it is.

Panic-stricken she alerted the UK police who managed to contact the local authorities in Delhi but they were unable to help the 53-year-old after he refused to open his front door.
An inquest today heard that laws in India prevented the local police and paramedics from smashing their way into Mr Rowland's flat and saving his life.

Oh shut the fuck up please. no such rule exists here. your sources suck, just like your country. You majority of americans just need an excuse to trash talk other countries, while doing nothing productive yourself. next time before making such a misleading entry, do a little more research to check the authenticity of the report you just read.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

It's Huffington post. They do have sound facts. However they also have psudo opinion. Some of their articles you just have to read between the lines as to what is sensationalism and what is fact.

 

[Reflection]

articles like thìs are the reason i avoid reading america-based news reports. they make you lose your brain cells faster than messing with mohammad ali would make you lose your teeth. even the most reputed sources are filled with utter crap.
