News India Live, Digital Desk: It is often said that anger clouds a person’s intelligence, but can there be such anger that turns a happy house into mourning and then stands in the court and defends itself? A case has come to light from Australia which has shaken not only the Indian community there but also the world of law.
The case pertains to Sajit Kumar Pillai, a person of Indian origin. He took the life of his own wife, and he even confessed to this in the court, but with a strange argument. Sajit says that he has definitely killed her, but it is not ‘Murder’ i.e. a premeditated murder.
Where did this whole story start?
Imagine, a family that goes and settles abroad for their livelihood and better future. Everything was going well, but suddenly the bitterness of relationships and daily fights reached a dreadful end. When Sajit was asked in the court, he admitted to committing the crime, but he avoided calling himself a ‘murderer’. In the language of law, this is being considered as ‘Manslaughter’ or an attempt to show an action taken out of passion.
Questions arising in the minds of the general public?
Every person reading this news is thinking that how can someone be so broken that he takes the life of the person whom he had promised to be with all his life? Was the mental pressure that much? Or is this just a clever plea to avoid legal punishment?
Increasing distance in relationships and this terrible result
In today’s times, loneliness and mental stress have become a big problem among couples living abroad. Often small things become so big that there is no way back. Sajit’s story also seems to be similar, where a moment of passion ruined the world of two families forever. Now the matter is in the court and everyone’s eyes are on how the law views this argument.
Often such incidents scare us, but they also force us to think whether lack of communication can make a person so helpless that he stops caring about the law?
