Most of Indian's still haev the mindset that foreigners and Americans can do no wrong. Lets look at Anand's case. 30 girls gang up to file charges only after his company get funded. Its the US of A. Even a child knows how to key in 911. u mean, all the 30 odd were quite, for over 4-5 years, were very happy of being sexually violated, travel with Anand, from State to State, with his family to India..I wonder. Its the conspiracy of overzeaolous lot on the fashion biz. Anand was teh first Indian to break into the international fashion business. He brought lots of accolades for the country.
Having said that, he is not exonerated because he is a celeb. The issue is what evidence does any of these girls claim to have. the only rape kit which was done turned negative. How ridiculous....and merely on statement , they arrest him and deny him bail and basic civil rights.
I guess the problem with India and Indian's is they never stand for their brethern. If a student is killed in America, then be it...whu cares.. Lets stand up and fight for our rights. In law one ins innoncent until proven so.

Anand John is a 'fallout situation' of current election drama in USA. He received highest order for champaigning for a presidential candidate - worth few million$ - first time in USA. The opponent group used the regular tricks available in a capitalist country - smearing by whores.
Its a well known fact that models screw around every where and those who are close to them are like that only. Its also a well known thing in USA for ladies to file suits on false claims, screw families and make money easily. Check internet and its an ocean of such issues in that country.
So, its a framework which Anand John himself used for success falling on him - the likes who cry for ladies rights are the types who sell 6" cloth for 6K grands.
Much of the people here in rediff forums have mob mentality - will continue to harp on without checking facts. Oh, they have their own ideas, necessities to feed and prejudices to pamper....
This is really ridiculous. I have full sympathy with the sister and mother of John. Any sister and mother, even of those who have been found guilty by law, will plead innocence of their wards. But why is media pleading their case? There are millions of sisters and mothers of Indians in India, whose sons and daughters are really innocent but they are at the receiving end of law because they can not afford high cost of justice. A great number of poor innocent undertrials are in jail although they have far exceeded their stay in jail if they would have been found guilty in case the trial was completed in time. Why is media not standing with them?

The rate at which we indians multiply... would be difficult for the media to track each person.. virtually impossible. Its easier to concentrate on the rich and powerful.. as they are fewer in number.

kabir--- dont comment without knowing the whole story-half knowledge well part knowledge is dangerous- if you dont relate to it dont help but dont have the mob mentality and follow the crowd blindly only when you are faced with pain will you realize important it is for us to stand together and fight for justice- at least give every person a chance to defend no matter which part of the world he dwells
