<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Why are you bent upon showing this as *not* a caste crime?
What has this got to do with any other case? Yes I do feel uncomfortable if the rationale for this *not* being a caste crime is because someone (not me) thinks some brahmin in Delhi being murdered is not a caste crime. (Frankly I dont even what you are talking about) <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Because it is not. It was a dispute over land and money.
If you think this is caste crime then why rape of priest wife, mother of two, outside temple in Delhi by Yadav is not a caste crime. Why any abuse against upper caste women is treated as common crime but crime against lower caste is always a caste based crime?

Two days back a upper caste school girl was kidnapped on road near bus stop in West Delhi, and was rapped in moving van by four guys and dumped in half naked condition in Janakpuri, Delhi. Yes, had it dalit girl, it would have made headlines in every newspaper and very easily it would be called as Caste-crime.
I have experienced how people exploit a simple crime and give different color according to their leaning.
If you have not read before, my experience, let me write again. When I was in school, I along with other girls was on the way to bus stop. One clinically mentally challenged man jumped on one girl and dragged her to road side. People on road stopped and separated that man. Now how this incidence was twisted. Girl was a Muslim and man was Hindu, it started Muslim Hindu riots within 24 hours, half of the city was under curfew. Girlâs parents were forced to remove her from school in between session and married her immediately even her father was from armed forces. Man who was recently released by mental hospital and was sent back.
All of us were wearing same school dress, only difference; she was taller and was behind me while we were walking.
This case was fully exploited by media and religious goons. 5-6 people lost life and lot of people lost shops and houses.
My parents never pulled me out of school. It should not be treated as Hindus parents let their girls to get raped/molested.
So look crime as a crime, you can give any color its your choice.
