Do not just blame Australia; it is in NJ and other places of America - racism against Indian intellectuals
Special Correspondent
Oct. 10, 2010

Top Australian police officers have been caught in a racist e-mail scandal joking about the electrocution of an Indian train passenger and suggesting that it could be "a way to fix the Indian student problem" in Melbourne.

This is a major problem in white dominated world whether America, Britain, or Australia. Racial lynching of Indian professionals including students is happening in many places of America, Australia, Britain, and in Europe.

Police officers of the Australian state of Victoria circulated what the press there has called "sickening video footage" showing the death of the man, who was travelling on the roof of a crowded train in India.

When the train stopped at a station, the man stood up and touched an overhead power cable. Onlookers screamed as he was electrocuted, showed the clip contained in one of the offending e-mails, the newspaper said.

The e-mail containing the video began circulating in the Victoria Police computer system and the racist comments were added.

External Affairs Minister S M Krishna has stepped in and South Block summoned Australian High Commissioner Peter Varghese to tell him that New Delhi viewed the revelations as "shocking" and a "matter of serious concern".

Sources said Krishna took the decision to summon the Australian envoy after consulting Prime Minister Manmohan Singh who was briefed by Indian High Commissioner in Australia Sujata Singh over the telephone.

Said Krishna: "Implication of police officers in such behaviour, specially vis-a vis Indian community in Australia, is shocking and a matter of serious concern...such attitude has no place in any society. We understand investigations are already underway. We sincerely hope that apart from taking action against concerned officials, Australian authorities will also take necessary and effective measures to address concerns about safety of all people of Indian origin in Australia."

This uncivilized behaviors are also happening America including New Jersey where many Indians live. Morris County of New Jersey is especially a focal center in this matter. Many Morris County Police Stations are branded as anti-Indian. They secretly video tape Indians after bringing them to police station and later charging them with false confessions.
