'பொது இடத்தில் தூக்கிலிடுவதே லஞ்சத்தை ஒழிக்க வழி' - உச்ச நீதிமன்றம்

லஞ்ச வழக்கொன்றை விசாரிக்கையில் உச்ச நீதிமன்ற நீதிபதி 'உங்களைப் போன்றோரில் சிலரை (பொதுவில்) மின்சாரக் கம்பிகளில் தொங்கவிட்டால்தான் லஞ்சத்தை ஒழிக்க இயலும்' எனக் கூறியுள்ளார்.

Court: hanging in public only panacea for corruption
Observing that everyone wanted to loot this country, the Supreme Court on Wednesday said, "the only way to rid the country of corruption is to hang a few of you on the lamp post."

"The law does not permit us to do it but otherwise we would prefer to hang people like you to the lamp post,'' a Bench comprising Justices S.B. Sinha and Markandeya Katju said during arguments put forth by R. Singh, counsel for an accused.

As counsel tried to make a submission, Justice Katju said, "Everywhere, we have corruption. Nothing is free from corruption. Everybody wants to loot this country. The only solution for this menace is to hang some people in the public so that it acts as a deterrent on others.''
