That's no more rational than saying "If the government spent $200
million on the trial, they must have been guilty."

It appears, according to reports this morning, that the investigation
may have been bungled by Canadian authorities from the beginning, and
the extreme cost and duration of the case may have been due to futile
attempts to overcome fatal blunders made early on.

Did they do it? We probably will never know, now.

Of course there is the possibility that this will never be solved. Kinda
like the perfect murder isn't it?

I thought the definition of a perfect murder to be one where there is doubt
that a murder was commited.

I have read a lengthy report on the net (sorry but I cannot find the link)
which maintains that there have been several 747 fuselage failures in the
cargo door areas and while I do not believe everything I read, does make me
ask just how confident we can be that this tragedy was in fact caused by a
bomb. Is the bomb hypothesis confirmed by hard evidence or could the damage
have been caused by rapid depressurization? It has been reported that there
were crash survivors who perished in the cold water so the ac can not have
hit that hard.

Blue skies to all

My thoughts exactly!!

I have the same feeling that the Canadian investigators screwed up right
from the start!

That's not a rationalization. It's simply an observation made to me by judge
Richard Ray Ford of Tennessee. Basically, the fact is that, if the prosecution
has a case, it will be made fairly rapidly. Cases brought long after the
incident rarely are based on provable fact.

Ripudaman Malik is a millionare who socializes with India's consul-gerneral
in vancouver,
Why shouldn't he? Not that Indias consul-general in Vancouver is anyone
special - he's just a civil servant, and not a particularly senior one.

Ajaib Bagri is a supposed sawmill worker.
What do you mean, supposed?
He was employed in the sawmill in Kamloops BC - there is no supposed
about it.

I am quite bitter about this outcome cause it has taken just shy of 20 years
and over $200 million of my tax dollars

OK I'm much happier now - I thought for a while that some of them were
my tax dollars.

-You can get away with mass murder blah blah blah . . .

What an asshole you truly are

The local news has just reported that the accused bombers of Air India

Ripudaman Singh Malik age 58 and Ajaib Singh Bagri age 55 were found not
guilty in the Bombing of Air India flight 182 that crashed into the Atlantic
Ocean just off the coast of Ireland on June 23 1985. Killing 329 people many
of them women and childeren!

They were also found not guilty in the death of two baggage handlers at
Tokyo's Narita Airport in Japan as the handlers where transfering luggage
from a CP Air Flight that originated in Vanvouver to a Air India that was
waiting at Narita!

only to have them be set free!!

Take it as you will but my opinion is this!!!

-You can get away with mass murder in canada if you have lots and lots of
money!
-If you are a member of a terroist organization you can get away with mass
murder!
-The RCMP and CSIS are completely incompetant when dealing with organized
crime or terrorist cells!
-If you socialize with high ranking goverment officials in canada you become
omnipotent!

Welcome to Canada, a terrorist friendly country!


DAMN I AM MAD!!!!!

This IS your tax dollars at work too pal!!
Although I don't agree with everything this guy says and the justice system
is supposed to work for everyone, something went terribly wrong and possibly
a couple of guys got away with murder!! There is no disputing this!

The investigation was clear that a explosive device brought this plane down
and someone placed it onboard the plane. I just hope that someday the person
(s) responsible are brought to justice and put away for a VERY long time

I believe you missed the sarcasm in Tony's post.

Although I don't agree with everything this guy says and
the justice system is supposed to work for everyone,
something went terribly wrong

Perhaps I'm wrong, but this remark seems founded on a
belief that the verdict was erroneous. Unless you sat
through all the testimony and examined the evidence,
you would not have a basis for such a belief, except
perhaps the common misconception that 'if they're
charged, they musta done it!'.

In simple fact, the judge who did sit through the testimony
and did weigh the evidence did not agree that the Crown
made their case. The judge did not feel that the allegations
against the accused were supported by the testimony and
evidence. That's what he's there for. If there was not a
sufficient case, and the accused were not convicted, then
something went right here.

Though we'd all like to see that the perpetrators of this
crime are brought to justice, it does not follow from this
outcome that this will not come to pass, nor that anyone
will get off scott free. Perhaps more evidence will
be discovered or more advanced analysis techniques
to interpret the existing evidence, and the path will
lead onward to other people. Perhaps not.

It might also be that the perpetrators are never found
nor convicted. There might just be not enough evidence
to track down and convict anyone. If this is so, it also
does not follow that the investigation was bungled, as
some others have suggested; it might just be that there
is no evidence to be found. Crimes go un-solved
everyday - just because this crime involved the deaths
of so many people does not change that.

a couple of guys got away with murder!! There is no
disputing this!

Yes there is. This remark implies that because these
accused were not convicted that 'a couple of guys got
away with murder'. If no one is ever convicted of
this crime then someone will have 'got away with
murder' - but this does not necessarily follow
from this particular verdict.
