Letter to the Editor – Beware of tricksters
Posted on September 22nd, 2009

By Dr. Mrs. Mareena Thaha Reffai

One of my patients came a little late one day and apologized saying she had to go to the police station. When inquired she said when she was getting out of the church, two men have come in a three wheeler and asked her to get in saying that she has to go to the police station. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ They have also told her to remove the gold chain she was wearing and to put it into the handbag she was carrying. After driving for little distance they have said it is not necessary and asked her to get out of the three wheeler.

Of course the poor lady found out that her god chain was missing when she locked for it.

The president got rid of the terrorists but another kind of ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ terrorism is still out there. That is taking the unsuspecting Tamils for a ride on the pretext of the police wanting to speak to them. The word police terrifies them and they do things anything they are asked to. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ This way the good work done by our forces and the government is taken advantage of by the unscrupulous elements and made a mockery of.

So everyone out there, Tamil or otherwise, warn your women folk, no police officer can ask them to come along without being accompanied by a lady cop. And, even then, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ they can always refuse until someone of theirs accompany them
