Police Suck

Recently, my friend's mother got kidnapped! In Bangalore!! A good friend of mine actually, he is. She was napped very close to Marathalli. This happened on a Saturday evening and after escaping twice from the bastards, she got away and reached safety - but not before she was taken to Mangalore! Totally horrifying incident. But what is even more horrifying is what the bastards of Police did to "help". The donkey-raping shit eaters.

Not only did the Police not take a complaint until there was pressure from an MLA and someone high up in a famous newspaper, but also they registered the complaint as a "missing person". This is a famous trick Police pull on you, more so in Bangalore. They don't register a theft complaint for example, if your mobile is stolen in a bus. They register it as a "lost and found" case. This is because anything to do with kidnapping or things getting stolen in general is a criminal case and they have to follow up the case and generally do a lot of work - for which they are paid. Instead, they just register petty cases so that they can file a "B-report" (which is basically that the case cannot be resolved as there is nothing that the Police can do) and close the case without even clenching a single butt muscle. So, a missing person case, which was not what my friend had in his complaint. When he finally came to know the where-abouts of his mother, he went to the Police station to get them to inform the hospital to which she was taken to that there was a complaint already so that they can treat her without a fuzz. Here is where the Police here completely went bonkers. They went offensive against my friend and started accusing him that his mom basically ran away because he was tormenting her. It is totally outrageous that he was not let to go to Mangalore and held up in the station for about 3 hours - this is with the MLA and other dude's influence mind you!

Basically, the very very little trust I had in the Police is now officially gone. This is the 4th incident I have seen where Police have gone hostile against a victim so that they don't have to do any work. And the sad part is there is no one who you can complain to without being harassed by other Police dudes. So, my advice - "Be sure you get on with your life as if you are on your own." Sad but true. And Bangalore is not what it used to be - a safe haven for everyone. Even more sad. Hmmm.
