Boycott Goa?

Question

A young 15 years old girl has just been murdered in Goa. Her name is Scarlett. To shift the attention from their own criminal involvement, the police and even the leader of that state are now charging the girls mother for parental neclect. Their response is that tourists should take care of themselves. In the beginning the police dismissed the case as a drowning accident. Only pressure from the mother resulted in a second ortopsy, that showed her daughter was raped and murdered.

The leader of Goa has stated that the mother is equally quilty in the murder of her daughter, simply because she was not with her daughter at the time when the murder happened. It is also well known that the police are best friends with the mafia there. I think it is right to boycott Goa and thereby teach those b******s a lesson. What do you think?

Answer 1

Thats a really sad story...

but these things do happen, its not just in Goa but everywhere else in the world.. boycotting Goa is not going to achieve anything!

My guess is boycott will cause hotel rates to drop .. and again rise in number of tourists eventually!

I have all the sympathy for the girl's mother, it has to be said that a girl that age should have been accompanied by an adult at all times.. especially travelling out of country!  in any place in the world there will be people who take advantage of a person's ignorance!

Anyways, i do agree that law enforcement in India is not really good! and such criminal incidents do happen even in much hyped tourist places like Goa.

Its better if people travelling there are aware of that and are careful not to trust strangers, always roam around in groups and as far possible get the tours managed by the hotel people.

Answer 2

I also think what you are thinking.

At the same time it is also right that the said mother is also guilty. In this world anywhere if you leave a iron chest full of gold coin without any lock - people would use it and enjoy!

And also if we need to boycott GOA, we need to boycott 1000 other cities all around the world for the same reason.
