'Have mercy on me, I want to get married'

Mumbai, December 6: At least two persons among the 100 held guilty by a designated TADA court for their involvement in the 1993 bomb blasts have urged for leniency in punishment since they wish to get married.

Shoib Ghansar and Bashir Gani have pleaded for leniency saying their lovers waited for 14 years to get married to them.

"Have mercy on me, I want to get married", Bashir Ahmed Usman Ghani Khairulla, who was convicted on December 4 on the charge of throwing hand grenades at a fishermen colony resulting in death of three persons, told the court.

Bashir said his ladylove was a teacher and had waited for 14 years to marry him. Their marriage was to be held in 1993 but the demolition of Babri Masjid and subsequent Mumbai bomb blasts led to his arrest, he said.

"I am quite serious about marrying her but that would be possible only if the court gives me less punishment and release me," he said

Another convict Mohammed Shoib Ghansar had a similar story. He fell in love with the daughter of another convict in the case and said he wanted to marry her.

The court has held 100 persons guilty of their role in the 1993 bomb blast case. It will hear arguments on the quantum of sentence before declaring the extent of punishment.

very reasonable excuse. I think the court should release them immediately.

When intelligence matures and lodges securely in the mind it becomes wisdom. When wisdom is integrated with life and becomes action it becomes Bhakti. Knowledge when it becomes fully mature is Bhakti. To believe that Jnana and Bhakti, knowledge & devotion, are different from each other is ignorance.

And the court should order the GoI to pay for the expenses. Such love should be honoured and cherished.

No one said that the 72 virgins had to be women (cue Ruchir)

PS: Reasonably sure that the Quran didnt specify the sex of the virgins awaiting.

Holy cow. Would suck to be Mohammad Atta. Working hard in hope for virgins and the virgin turns out to be Mohammad Salah!

CP, I first read this as "I (i.e. Cover Point) would suck Mohd Atta". I had a hard time (not the RJo kind)stifling my laughter.

And CP, dont assume things. Maybe, Atta wanted variety.

No thank you. I am happy swinging just one way. I am very homophobic. Ab dus bar Ram ka naam lena padega.

Khuda kasam, aise to khayal se bhi door raho. Let Atta and Salah have it among them!
