Ebook: Will Truth Prevail: A report of the investigation team on the murder of Sr. Sylvia and Sr. Priya at Snehasadan, Jogeshwari (Bombay/Mumbai, India)

This is a report of investigation of human rights violation. In November 1990, two nuns/sisters looking after orphan children at the Snehasadan were brutally murdered. The police, by negligence or deliberately, allowed the crime scene to be violated and when came under public pressure, leaked stories questioning the moral character of the nuns. The police investigation dragged on but the nuns working in the communities started facing problems due to the scandalous media reports on the character of the murdered nuns. A group of public spirited individuals therefore came together to investigate the situation and released this report in 1991. The report found that prejudices against women and minorities were used by police, doctors and media to help the administration to escape accountability.
