Judge secures future of orphaned boys after sentencing father to life


Place: Mahila Court, Tuticorin in Tamil Nadu. (Friday, January 8, 2016)

Case: Murder of his wife by an alcoholic husband being sentenced to life imprisonment 

Effect: Three sons (aged between 11& 7) of the couple being orphaned with no relatives prepared to take care.

Action of the judge Ms J.Flora: 
She talked to the kids, learnt their helplessness, summoned the maternal uncle of the children with lot of difficulty, convinced him for a few days of custody and left the court room only after ensuring their protection in a home run by Roman Catholic Missionaries. She left the office only at 7.30 PM to reach her house where  her son was waiting for the mother.

Hats off to such a judge in our midst. India is in safe hands. I wrote a letter and thanked her for such a gesture.

I also salute the Christian Missionaries for their selfless and silent service to humanity in India where I find Hindu Mutts having no inclination to engage in such humanitarian work.
