India Needs Justice Reform Following Mumbai Blast Acquittals

Imagine a group of people accused of a serious crime spent many years in jail, only to later be found innocent.

This is happening frequently in India, especially in cases involving terrorism.

Courts are finding fault with how the police collect evidence, like using confessions obtained through torture.

A recent report suggests laws to help people wrongly accused.

The courts often hesitate to give money to those wrongly accused, particularly when national security is involved.

It's important to improve how police investigate and how courts handle these cases so that innocent people are not wrongly punished.
