Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
Why is the current IGP not accountable for his lies and not paying?
Wednesday, June 26, 2013
In the Army they have a saying, "there are no bad soldiers only bad officers". So why are not the officers who are in charge not paying the price for murder? Instead they get promoted, seriously, ain't that a joke. Becoming the laughing stock of the world is what 'Bolehland' has become! I have no respect for this IGP at all, likewise everyone else should feel the same. The IGP should be charged for dereliction of duty and for his famous lies.
Surendran: “Despite
the victory, this is still a small consolation for the family. Why?
Because the culprits who murdered Kugan are still walking free in this
country." For this family to have closure, the culprits who did this act must be brought to justice,” he said. So when are they going to charge the culprits for attempting to cover up? Earlier today, High Court judge Datuk V. T. Singham held IGP Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar responsible for the death of detainee A. Kugan.
The judge accused Khalid, who at the time was Selangor police chief, and his men of trying to supress the truth to escape liability.
Kugan's family wins civil suit against gov't by Koh Jun Lin
The family of custodial death victim A Kugan today won their civil suit against the police and the government. The
Kuala Lumpur High Court this morning ordered the respondents to pay
RM801,700 in damages to the family and another RM50,000 in costs. Kugan's mother, Indra Nallathamby, 43
in January last year filed a RM100 million civil suit for damages
against the government and police over what she claimed as the "brutal murder" of her son.
She
named the then-Selangor police chief Khalid Abu Bakar (now
inspector-general of police), police officer Navindran Vivekanandan, the
then-Subang Jaya police chief Zainal Rashid Abu Bakar (now deceased),
as well as the then-inspector-general of police and the government as
defendants. The judge, VT Singham, upheld her claims that Kugan
had been wrongly imprisoned, and that the defendants have breached their
duty of care to him. “Police lock-ups and police stations must
be a safe place for every human being and should not be converted into a
crime scene,” he said.
The damages include RM192,000 for lost of
dependency, RM9,700 for funeral expenses, RM50,000 for assault and
battery, another RM50,000 for causing suffering, RM100,000 for false
imprisonment, RM100,000 for malfeasance in public office, and RM300,000
in exemplary damages.
Although the judge held that the remand order on Kugan was legally issued, he said that the order was subsequently abused. This
was done by detaining him at the Taipan Police Station lock-up,
although it is not a gazetted lock-up and the court had ordered Kugan to
be held at the Petaling Jaya lock-up, and then assaulting him. Singham said such an abuse of a court’s remand order can be tantamount to a contempt of court. The
judge also said that the testimonies of the defendants had been
inconsistent and unreliable and said there had been an attempt to cover
up the death.
After
the court had adjourned, tears were seen flowing from Indra’s eyes, but
she declined to speak to the press. PKR vice-president N Surendran (right in photo), who was also a witness for Indra, said she was too emotional to speak.
“Despite
the victory, this is still a small consolation for the family. Why?
Because the culprits who murdered Kugan are still walking free in this
country.
“For this family to have closure, the culprits who did this act must be brought to justice,” he said. He
was referring to Navindran, who was charged with ‘causing grievous
harm’ and is out on bail, and others who are believed to be still at
large.
