Sateesh: It has been a good 20 years since Perarivalan was booked. Even after having advocates to argue his case, why did Perarivalan fail to prove his innocence? You think the judges are also anti-Tamil? Don't blabber that he is asking for a permission to go free. His advocate commented that he was asking for commuting the death sentence to life imprisonment. What do you think is the crime that Perarivalan did which would make his qualify for a life imprisonment?

The whole of the Tamil Nadu state assembly expressed their solidarity to him, in the house. Why not even a single person contested this stand? If Perarivalan's role is so transparent that all the politicians of the state could accept his innocence, why couldn't the judges be convinced? And the same politicians who reached that conclusion by "studying every aspect" of the case do not take any humanitarian stand in the Mullaperiyar case? Doesn't that sound fishy? That means, the support to Perarivalan is all based on regional feelings, and nothing else. You may please go and teach these to someone who cannot connect things and think.

'mallu' word came just because of the 'tamil' word.

Perarivalan is asking to set him free. He is not the Guilty. If you really feel that, please let me know for what reasons you want him to hang personally.

Sateesh: Perarivalan is not asking the court to exonerate him. If he did not have any hand in this, he should have asked to set him free. You are showing your regional colours again by calling me a mallu. A Malayali never protests that way. He thinks logically and takes a decision based on that. Update your knowledge on other people, or correct yourself.

@Sreejith : What is the solid proof do you have to make him a convict? Even the court has Arivu's Statement given to the CBI(read again.. not in the court. The stmt was given by Arivu bcas of the Torture of the CBI which is clearly mentioned in the book where there are 31 occurrences of the word Tamil), which can be accepted only based on TADA. But SC denied the applicability of TADA in this case. Why the SC 'released' most of the 26 who were given Death Sentence. Read again.. even there was no reduction in the punishment but most of them were released.

Even if the death sentnce to Arivu was given based on his own statement. Could you tell one single reason for him to deny his involvement??

You want to brand him as a Convict just because you are a 'mallu'

@Rajesh:

Thanks for coming back and posting your views.

You never know, without enough and solid evidences; that's the problem.

You know the Abhaya case, right. A policeman named Michael (who sided with the culprits once) commited suicide. But their is a strong belief that it was a murder. That means, the view "out of regret" totally depends on how you interpret the suicide/murder. Also check when the person (in Perarivalan's case) committed suicide. How long did he carry the regret?

Don't stand by Vaiko and give your thoughts. Everybody in South India knows the man and his deeds and motives. One can only laugh when someone stands by Vaiko and echoes his sentiments and statements. That statement itself is absurd. There is no Tamil race or separate justice for them. There is only man, or at the narrowest level Indians. Nothing else needs to be considered in this case.

As per our law, ignorance of the law is never an excuse. That sums it up.

Appeal with blood signatures? Anybody can do it. I mean anybody!

These are not enough reasons to believe Perarivalan is innocent. Come with something solid, clear, evident. I shall support you. As of now, he is a culprit.

Sorry for my late follow up...

Below, I'm copy-pasting the "problematic" texts for others to decide. Let them decide between yours and the texts.

Personally, I've lived in Munnar, been to Trivandrum, Calicut and Bangalore. I've racially profiled in all these places (including been dropped in bus on the way to REC in Calicut). Also, I'm used to watch Asianet, Kairali, Mathrubhumi. So, I can boldly tell you that, even if there's any Tamil sentiments, it must not be compared with any of these places. MGR, Jayalalithaa, Vijayakanth, Arya, Jeeva, Jesudas, Chitra, M.S.Viswanathan, genocide in Sri Lanka, etc are huge examples [sic] for "Tamil sentiments". Majority of Perarivalan supporters are human rights people.

Here's the "problematic" things highlighted by you:

1st:
Some time back Kadhir Bargeer, the police inspector..., committed suicide out of mental frustration...he wrote...letter "...I implicated Arumugam, an innocent Tamil picking rags and prepared false evidence. I feel pained..."
(Under Foreword of Dr. S. Ramadoss)

4th:
A nightingale of freedom which was singing the anthem of rights of the Tamil race has been imprisoned in a case and its miserable plight is heart-rending.
(Under Foreword of VAIKO)

27th:
I did not know about TADA act. Not only for me, for all the people in Tamil Nadu, TADA was new at that time.
(Perarivalan explains that TADA was new to people of Tamil Nadu)

31st:
Show Mercy to the four Tamils - Appeal with Blood Signaturers - Bangalore, Dec' 1999
(Photo caption for a campaign held in Bangalore)

@Rajesh:

Thanks for your comments. If the light is snuffed out in your room, it is foolish to believe that the whole world is in dark. Just have a relook on the grounds in which the term Tamil is used in it. To make it more clear, what is the real need (or use) of using the word Tamil in the 1st, 4th, 27th, and 31st search results? The whole of the Tamil Nadu assembly stood by him. Don't you think it is a conscious effort to save a man because he is a Tamilian? Such kind of unity is alarming.

What is the solid proof his supporters have? Why don't they approach the court and take it legally rather than trying to bring in more support and standing away from the laws?

I would be only glad if I am 'proved' wrong.

In your blog you have mentioned that he's using "Tamilian" term and exploiting regional sentiments. Here is the book http://indraiyathamizhagam.com/articles/img/aug%20pic/Book.pdf and searching for "Tamil" on that gives 31 results. Can you explain, which sentence is "problematic"?

Interesting.

@Srijith Unni:

Exactly! There is no real intent from this man to prove his innocence. I expected something like that. But he tries to exploit regional sentiments to draw support. He gets enormous support now.

Well thought out and written, buddy! I think however strong maybe his writings, truth should prevail and the guilty should be punished.How much is punishment enough, sadly differs from person to person. For some probably even death isn't punishment enough.
