A conscientious cop trying to improve the system meets stiff resistance. When the villians have tested the system’s patience to the limit subordinates of this honest cop snap and take their frustration out by drowsing acid on the villians. In no time the cowardly town terrorized by Yadav family is rejuvenated and takes matters in its hands dowsing acid on every criminal – taking law in their own hands.
Just fiction? Not really. Reality is closer to Reel than we sometimes realize. Recently, villagers in eastern India burned eight suspected robbers alive and beat four others to death.
Is it an illustration of human’s beastly nature? senseless mob violence? or something deeper? more serious? The incident took place in Pakur district of Jharkhand (a State in Eastern India), a State known for its lawlessness and ‘jungle raaj’. Corruption is deep rooted and the State machinery has failed so miserably that citizens are left with no choice but to take the law in their hands to protect themselves against crime.
