A Shot In The Dark

There are some faces that you see far too often .....

Chief Supt Kevin Mulligan - Heading Yet Another Murder Enquiry.
Chief Supt Kevin Mulligan - Heading Yet Another Murder Enquiry.

and this is one of them .... Yes its our old friend, Chief Supt Kevin Mulligan of that socialist voting paradise known as Salford. We last heard from him in June this year, when one of those not so 'rare' violent deaths that occurred so often in Salford was in the news. 

Well yet again there has been another senseless killing in Salford, this time of Anuj Bidve an Indian Student 'executed' in the streets in the early hours, and in front of eight other students. Two men just approached the nine students, all Indians, said something to them that's not been reported, then one pulled out a gun and shot the student in the head, killing him.

As usual, the Chief Supt had some platitudes to reel out. "This appears to be an unprovoked attack and we can't establish a motive at this time. We are investigating every possible aspect and we are in the early stages of the investigation, but we are not ruling anything out." .... he bit that struck me was 'appears to be unprovoked'? What? There could possibly be a reasonable 'motive' for a 'provoked attack'? A man was shot dead in the street - we don't need to know why the killer did it, or if the attack was 'unprovoked', we need to know that they have been caught.

At least he recognises that its the denizens of his crime ridden patch who perpetrate these crimes "I believe the answers to who did this will lie in our community", which is something of an improvement on his statement following an earlier murder/shooting in Salford, that he "would like to reassure residents that there is no general threat to them as a result of what happened".

As Inspector Clouseau once said "Yes, well, life is not all shoot-shoot, bang-bang, you know" which thought must be a source of comfort to the residents of the gun alleys of Salford.

Update: Rather strangely the police have so far arrested four people in connection with this murder - two men and two boys, aged 16 and 17.
