Privacy and class

IN Media Watch Briefs | 12/03/2013

The poor are not entitled to privacy. Ram Singh's mother had to tell photographers to leave them alone,  the papers reported on Tuesday. The pictures of his grieving parents and their home got printed anyway. Difficult to recall any pictures printed of the accused's  families inside their homes in  cases of middle or upper class offenders. We see pictures of Bitti, not of his parents.
