A Day After His Daughter Was Kidnapped And Returned Home, Deepak Tijori Is Traumatized Angry & Hellbent On Action Against Perverse Elements In Mumbai

“Such things always happen to others. Unless it happens to you, you don’t  know it feels.  Ever since it happened on  Sunday evening my wife and  I have been  in shock  but running  to the cops to  get them to  take  drastic action. People have  chosen to  misconstrue and misrepresent  what we’ve gone  through. It’s amazing that a stranger could just  pick up my child in daylight at  4.45 pm  in a city as busy and  supposedly  efficient  as  Mumbai …It’s unheard of  At that hour Lokhandwala where the incident happened   buzzes with hyper-activity. It happened  at a shopping centre  in Lokhandwala where  my daughter was with a  friend. The friend  was  threatened to  keep out. Even she is totally traumatized and guilt-ridden about why she didn’t raise an alarm…My wife Shivani had  gone with the two girls for lunch.  On the way back  she  left them for fifteen minutes  at  the shopping centre for  window shopping. How  could a stranger  have the audacity to  take  my daughter away? The guy didn’t know  whose daughter she was.  Luckily for  us Samara  was returned  to us physically  unharmed, never mind the mental trauma. What  about  those vulnerable Samaras  out there in Mumbai who never return or  return damaged  for life?…I just want to say  one thing…Stop these pokey hotels  where such are allowed to happen. The hotel where that  motherf…ker took  my  poor  little  child  must be privy to  these  goings-on. The  hotel knew  Samara was 13. They could she  was a  child.  They still   gave a  room  to   that  fuc..g pervert.  Fortunately for  us, because Samara  was crying  and pleading the  bastard let her go. But  does  anyone  know  what  my wife and I went through for those four hours  until  our daughter came home? Do they know what Samara went through? The monster  actually had the guts to drop my daughter back and threatens her father  and family with dire consequences  before  leaving her. He was basically a  jerk who thought he’d  do things with my daughter. But  because  she was howling  he dropped her back home…Tell me, how could the bloody hotel Mantra Residency  let in a  man forcing   a crying child into their premises? All these shady hotels in Madh Island must be  raided. My  blood freezes  to  think how much perversion  must be going  on in there. My wife and I were unable  to sleep even after  our child was returned. What  if he had harmed her physically? What about those innocent girls who are  taken to these hotels?  Rooms are let  out  without asking any question and without even  registering the names of  the guests! Do  you know  the man  at the counter took extra money from my daughter’s kidnapper and gave him  a  room without registering his name! I’m  grateful to God for sparing  my daughter. On  Monday afternoon  Samara was finally  able to give her  statement to the cops. But the  thought of  such hotels functioning in Mumbai is  nauseating. Do your business. But please don’t sell away  the lives of  13-year olds for a mere  800 rupees. Rooms  are let out for half  an hour and 45 minutes. What’s going on? Is this what we’ve come to?The scariest part  is, this kidnapper  intimidated my daughter  into getting into an autrickshaw by taking  away her  phone and slapping her(what was the rickshawallah  guy thinking?)   and  took her to the hotel, illegally  booked  a room and walked out of back entrance in  the hotel that can only be  known to regular visitors. I took back my daughter to the hotel with the cops. The  Mantra Residency  people are now going  to the extent of  threatening  us. But I don’t care.  Our citizens need to be protected against such   hotels. These places need to be  closed down. How many  teenagers must have been ruined in  these dens  of vices? We need  to  protect  our children. Now after what has happened to my child our friends  are afraid to let their children  out of sight.Why isn’t the law taking the situation as seriously as it warrants? Why hasn’t the hotel staff  been  grilled when my daughter has  identified  the hotel and the hotelier has admitted by daughter was brought to his place?Instead the  cop was protecting  the  hotel manager.  What-all  must be  going  in  that hotel!  I’m proud  of  my  child for  being so brave.It could’ve damaged her forever. But this racket  needs to be busted.  I  seriously want a Taliban-like punishment for  the kidnapper. Behead him in  front  of  all  the parents whose  children  he  must have messed  around  . Just like  Qasab should be  shot  Mantra Residency should be shut.”  - SAMPURN
