The government has not prosecuted the indigenous people when they have murder outsiders. Before John’s martyrdom, the last reported murder was in 2006 when some fisherman came too close to the island, and the Sentinelese captured and killed them.India refused to prosecute or hold anyone responsible for their deaths.
North Sentinel IslandBased on reports and information that has become available after his death, it is now known that John went to Port Blair where he allegedly hired fishermen to take him near North Sentinel. About one-half mile from the island, he left the boat and paddled ashore in his kayak. Last Thursday, November 15, a Sentinelese boy shot John with an arrow, but it hit his Bible that he was holding to his chest. The tip barely penetrated the Bible but saved him from the attack.
John left the island and returned the next day on November 16, Friday, to again make contact with the people. He took gifts seeking to befriend them. Because of their isolation, no outsider knows the language of the Sentinelese.
On November 17, Saturday, the fisherman returned to take John back to Port Blair. They reportedly saw that John was shot by arrows but kept walking. He was killed by the Sentinelese. The tribals placed a rope around his neck and dragged him along the shore where his body was buried.The fisherman turned their boat around and informed authorities upon their arrival in Port Blair. Helicopters dispatched to North Sentinel to investigate John’s murder were unable to land.
Even when the island was devasted by an earthquake and a tsunami, the Sentinelese shot arrows at helicopters and boats bringing humanitarian relief. In its effort to preserve the distinctness of the indigenous Sentinelese, the Indian government has gone to the extreme of allowing them to murder outsiders.
"This is not right," said Staver. "His family deserves to bring John’s body back home where he can be buried. Human life is a universal inalienable right. John was seeking to bring them peace and the Prince of Peace. May his sacrifice bring about change and new life to many in North Sentinel and around the world," said Staver.
Reportedly, a total of seven people, including the fishermen, have been charged with culpable homicide for either knowing or participating in John’s mission to the island. Some unknown people (presumably the Sentinelese) have been charged with his death, but the Indian government thus far has refused to prosecute the Sentinelese for prior murders. In their efforts to "protect" the Sentinelese from outside visitors, the Indian government has essentially treated North Sentinel as a sovereign island.
Detta kommer sluta illa för Sentineleserna, även om just den där artikeln inte går så hårt åt att nån ska straffas så finns det nog andra som gör det. Särskilt nu som i stort sett hela världen känner till denna ö. Nån nämnde också tidigare att det finns säkert pengar att hämta i ett rättsmål så kommer det nog bli en liten diplimatisk schism av detta.
Google verkar också ha stängt ner recensionerna på maps.
