Aarushi: Comprehensive character assassination
We are all hunting for the truth in Aarushi’s case, and I don’t think at the end of the day we’ll be convinced about any face of the truth revealed. I have consistently maintained that the whole truth in Aarushi’s case has been lost forever, and whatever remains or will be discovered will be nothing more than scattered debris of the truth. A lot was said about Aarushi that could be ‘character assassination’. I do not include the truth within the meaning of ‘character assassination’, which is to say whatever that is true about Aarushi-Hemraj connection is necessarily outside the meaning of the expression. However, it seems that people have gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure that character assassination is complete, undoubted and unpardonable, regardless of the truth. Some part of what all has been said will be proved wrong.
I reached this conclusion after reading this little piece titled Aarushi-Hemraj double murder: Likely killers and the motivational theory. This write-up is simply shocking. It is ‘comprehensive character assassination’. The writer goes to the extent of covering everything that was left out. He goes ahead and makes a connection between the father and the daughter and also attaches the mother in the most repulsive way, and, of course, the servant.
We are not only the product of our circumstances but also the product of our thoughts and imaginations. What is imagined does not only deal with what is imagined but also speaks volumes about the one who imagines.
So far as Aarushi is concerned, a long as we have such fecund imaginations at work, there will be no dearth of theories, howsoever outlandish.
Every point this fellow makes can be countered well enough. But that’s beside the point. The point lies in noticing as to how dark the darker recesses of human mind are. Rather amusing.
