Former Director General of Police Amod K. Kanth decodes some of the most shocking and horrible incidents that dominated the headlines in Khaki on Broken Wings, the second installment of the best-selling Police Diaries series. Using his extensive knowledge of crimes committed in real life by the wealthy and powerful, Kanth exposes the flaws in the criminal justice system, which includes the police, whose investigations are essential to any prosecution, the courts and attorneys, and the prison and correctional services, which powerful criminals ruthlessly exploit. Kanth demonstrates how the court almost ruled "No one killed Jessica" in the Jessica Lal murder case despite the strong evidence amassed by the police, all in an effort to defend the son of a prominent politician. In the infamous 1999 Delhi hit-and-run case, as the BMW case, he describes how a highly decorated admiral?s family, joined by top lawyers, planted a bogus witness, who became central to the case and whose testimony almost dictated the judicial outcomes. He recounts how ?Bikini Killer? Charles Sobhraj managed a sensational escape from the highsecurity Tihar Jail in Delhi. Kanth also narrates the story of the mafia lord Romesh Sharma terrorising his targets to extort properties worth hundreds of crores and thwarting investigations using his access to political and corporate powers. Kanth passionately argues for the radical restructuring of the criminal justice system so that the police and the justice system are able to protect the poor, the needy and the helpless instead of being subservient to the rich and the powerful.
