On 20 July it was reported that "A coroner’s mention will be held next Tuesday (23 July 2013) but an inquiry will likely be vacated, Mr Mahendran said." Reading Mahendran's statement, he doesn't sound too positive. After this the AGC, on 25 July, issued a statement to discontinue the Coroner's Inquiry.<br /> <br />These are the questions that are intriguing:<br /><br />(1) Why the decision to request for a Coroners Inquiry NOW - is the offer for compensation for Dinesh's family too little and they are disatisfied with the outcome?<br /><br />(2) What happened during the "coroner's mention" on 23 July? <br />a. Did Mr Mahendran represent Dinesh's family with all his might (see his statement above)?<br />b. Did the AGC browbeat Dinesh's parents and their lawyer Mr Mahendran into accepting the AGC's decision?<br /><br />(3) Why is M Ravi representing the Dinesh family now and not Mr Mahendran?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772491888812684500.post-76057111171753085822013-08-15T17:21:31.183+08:002013-08-15T17:21:31.183+08:00//The family of Dinesh Raman s/o Chinnaiah, who di...//The family of Dinesh Raman s/o Chinnaiah, who died in Changi Prison on 27 September 2010, is requesting the Attorney General Chambers (AGC) to direct the coroner to complete the Coroner’s Inquiry into Dinesh’s death.//<br /><br />A Public Coroner's Inquiry is absolutely necessary to arrive at the truth, not a behind-closed-doors COI, which even then they refuse to divulge.

The nation has been home to a Formula One circuit since 2008. The annual race is a major tourist attraction, drawing an estimated 150,000 visitors over the last four years while generating about $114 million to $122 million in visitor spending annually. But hosting the single race costs roughly $122 million each year, 60% of which is covered by government funding. Singapore just renewed its Formula One contract, but only after the government determined that it will cut costs by as much as 20% to make the race more affordable –.//<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772491888812684500.post-47212429695860131422013-08-13T17:52:45.087+08:002013-08-13T17:52:45.087+08:00//Did the country make or lose money on the sweeth...//Did the country make or lose money on the sweetheart deals with Bernie Ecclestone?//<br /><br />You really want to know? $65m goes first to Bernie's pocket.

Think about it- forensic investigators and coroners are the gatekeepers to the public knowledge about deaths and crimes. Are any of these compromised? Some coroners and medical examiners are probably specifically targeted with pressure. Others just know how *things* work and who's buttering their bread. Others are sympathetic to particular cases in one way or another and implicitly know what they have to do. Still others are simply amoral, like people in all walks of life, have no problem doing whatever for whoever is rewarding them in whatever way. Finally, consider how journalists, business people and firms, academics etc. are "developed" over time by all the agencies. Those people DO live completely normal careers, get hired, fired, change jobs just like everyone else, but when they're needed they're assets- you can go to them when you need them. Well guess who else falls into that category.<br /><br />But that's how it's done. Murder through accomplice and complicity. <br />In this case, if he was murdered, the ducks were probably all lined up before it went down. As for suicide notes, do you think technology was developed to perfectly imitate other people's handwriting? If you know forensics, do you think you can reverse engineer the hand prints, bits of DNA, dander flakes etc. etc. that people leave on paper when they write it? Let me put that another way- do you think that such technology was specifically not developed for some reason?<br /><br />It's a game as old as humankind itself- The Powers That Be can see to it that Bad Things happen to the Wrong People who threaten them, and then those people turn up dead or missing. What is the alternative hypothesis?
