The long arm of the law has finally nabbed the suspect in the murder of a law student in Perumbavoor, Kerala (June 17). We should desist from mixing politics in this case and look at it as a result of efficient work by the police which went about its work using science and technology. It was also given a free hand politically, which is an important point. The case also shows that there needs to be checks and balances as far as migrant labourers are concerned.

The arrest shows that there are many challenges before the police especially when there is the factor of migrant labour. The government should take steps to register all of them and have frequent checks.

I hope this does not lead to social tensions. Despite the findings in this case, there should be a move to work toward the withdrawal of the Inter- State Migrant Workmen Act which imposes impossible conditions on employers of migrant workers and results in harassment by government officials.
