Blog: Mumbai police, media have failed Jyotirmoy Dey

29 Mar

The confessed mastermind of the murder of crime reporter J Dey, whose June 2011 funeral is shown here, remains free.

New Delhi-based Tehelka
weekly news magazine has published a scathing
indictment
of the police investigation into the 2011 killing of Mumbai
crime reporter Jyotirmoy
Dey
— and of the Indian media’s coverage of it. Beneath the allegations
and the rumor, we still don’t know exactly why he was killed, while the
self-confessed mastermind is a fugitive from justice. Meanwhile, a second
journalist has been indicted for the crime on apparently flimsy evidence.
