2 journalists arrested in AMU gay professor case

Two journalists have been arrested on charges of breaching the privacy of gay professor S.R. Siras who was found dead in his home earlier this month.

The Times of India reported on Apr 19, 2010:

Adil and Siraj, journalists with a local TV channel, were arrested late on Sunday. The two along with another mediaperson filmed Siras in a consensual homosexual act with a rickshaw puller in his room in the AMU premises.

"Of the three journalists, two have been arrested. On the directions of the chief judicial magistrate (CJM) court, a case under several sections of the IPC was registered against the three journalists and four AMU officials April 9," police Inspector Ghanshyam Singh told IANS.

"On the basis of the ongoing enquiry, we may make more arrests in connection with the case," he added.

Along with the three journalists, four AMU officials - Zubair Khan (proctor), Farheed Ahmad Khan (deputy proctor), Rahat Abrar (public relations officer), and NAK Durrani (media adviser) - were booked under various sections of the IPC.

Finally. A bit too late for the Prof though. What about charges against the officials who refused to register the original complaint by the Prof.?

India is dead piled under centuries of corrupt bureaucracy. This action stems from international exposure and outrage, it's just surface damage control. As for police officials not registering the Prof's complaint, it's cutting too close for comfort when it's one of their own guys in the justice department.

Just you wait, this will just be another long drawn media circus destined for a slow death made in India. Sad case for the whole country.

@2, Luckily India has a free press to expose corruption, and motivated gay-friendly lawyers, so maybe it will work out better for justice than you think.

At least it is a beginning, I hope they do forget why it happened. What about the person who runs the school? Did they forget about him? In a way it is a shame that it take International Attention, Press Media, or the Internet to bring about change or reaction. Most countries religions advocate doing the right thing, yet too often we as people forget to do something. I do not mean we need to hurt these people, but they should pay for their wrongs. When bad people do things it is up to us to not have apathy, but to express to others about their wrong doings. Some acts are not wholly criminal in nature, but still wrong and we should speak out. What about the Newspapers that first published the story with a negative light? Are they being held accountable for their actions? Do people still buy those newspapers? Are people boycotting them?

i just wish this guy's friends would have parachuted him out of this awful situation and intervened to have him seek refuge someplace else... we need to recognize when a human being is fragile and take him away from bullies on both ends of the spectrum, next time call me and I will send in my gay mod squad, this guy needed to be taken to a place to heal instead of being pushed to try and get his job back
