    Good work by the Police looking at the tool''s these people carrying it is certain that they were upto some mischief, May be to make some quick money. Punishment will not solve the problem we will have to find out the root cause for their behaviour and educate them in doing the right thing''s in the society.

    The efforts of the Crime Squad are commendable and we as the citizens feel proud to have a team of such calibre protecting us.. Its not right to presume that only people who have done wrong/ injustice are targetted.. we have ample examples in history where people who have dared to stand against the wrong or rather chosen to stand for the right, have had enemies.. to think that 5 different people having varied backgrounds want to attack someone with a common motive for injustice caused to them is like something straight out of a movie plot.. obviously, these are persons put on the job by other person(s)..

    All the same, we as fellow human beings cannot even think that there can be any justification to take another''s life.. Here''s wishing the Crime Squad, success in bringing the guilty to book.. that will serve as a reminder to every such anti social element.. Keep it up.. Thank you for all that you have doing so that we are safe..

    Why cover the faces of the accused. Let public see them and identify them. Writing their name on a slate and their Crime no. is a better way to show their true colour to the public.

    For goodness sake, why these youngsters would plan to kill or assasinate this guy Ganesh Shetty, unless, he has done great harm or damage to them or their close ones! From their names, the ages and their background, it doesn`t appear to be a motive of robbery, but it looks like they wanted to settle some score or dispute with Mr. Shetty. All the same, there is always in place the law and the proper channel to take care of such injustice or wrong doing, if any, and one should not resort to such drastic steps, and it is appropriate that these culprits should be dealt with severely. By the way, good work by the D.K. Special Crime Squad Police to nab these intended culprits.
