I have always been proud to be a Mumbaikar. Wherever I go, I proudly announce that I was born and brought up in this wonderful city. But the tragic incident of the murders of Keenan Santos and Reuben Fernandes has filled me with shame because of the simple fact that a large number of Mumbaikars just preferred to be onlookers.
But now at least we can make sure the four culprits get strictest of punishments. We also need to make sure that such an incident never ever happens again. To ensure this, some kind-hearted Mumbaikars have started a campaign against sexual harassment called ‘Zero Tolerance Campaign’. Their motto is also to make sure the victims are given justice soon.

The victims won’t return but at least we can help avoid such tragically unfortunate incidents and also show there is still humanity in us. I hope this incident doesn’t deter others from stopping a girl from being sexually abused. If you don’t oppose or fight against it, the city will become a jungle. Let’s make sure the murders of these two youngsters make us more determined in fighting against such social evils.

its a shame on those who watched the incident and disgrace to those who have done this act …for the act was really insane ..with incidents like this happening in Mumbai its really making it a unsafe place to live in …for those who think that they can ignore and sit back and relax may be and nothing is going to happen to them ..if we as humans as responsible citizens don’t work towards to make things like this not happen again ..one day there would be no one to save anyone ..i pray for the souls of both of them…to be in peace …and spread the message of peace in the world.

The murderers of these innocents should be punished (kill them the way they killed Keenan & Reuben) asap or we need to change the law. Then this case will be a life time lesson to all other Eve Teasers.

That’s right Arati.
But the problem is the functioning of our law system. I am sorry to say but I find it impotent. Ajmal Kasab is the biggest example. He committed the most heinous of crimes but still he is been kept as India’s guest by spending crores of rupees on him.
