New Delhi, India (TDN) — My letter seeking to trace the whereabouts of my six year old son, Rayhan, appeared in your esteemed news media on October 2, 2011 .
The German philosopher, Fredrich Nietzsche had ordained : “ Man ! Thou goest to a Woman ? Do not forget thy Whip !”. Nietzsche believed that there were only two categories of human beings. Slaves and slave drivers; Leaders and followers; Superior and Inferior beings

Women, according to him, were certainly in the second grouping. Among his most ardent fan was, Adolf Hitler ! My sisters in Dominica will agree with me, that most men, unfortunately, also subscribe to this view-point.
Some are in fact, quite open about it; even boastful ! This is because financially and physically men have control over women, be they wives, daughters, sisters, employees or even mothers.
When a man is upset, and he yells and shouts, he is deemed to be just acting in a manly fashion. But if a woman does so, she is labeled as being bitchy, hysterical and crazy ! This is a Universal Rule. It’s a Man’s world.
Make no mistake about it ! This was what my husband expected of me.
Following publication of my missive, I noted a few brick- bats flung at me in the Blogs by people who did not even know me.
Moreover, the vicious swipes, including at my chastity by a purported cop, reeked of malevolence. They were, quite obviously, planted by an interested person.
I have no grudge, however, against an unknown housekeeper who claimed she was employed in our house, for bad-mouthing me. After all, while love makes the World go ‘round - money greases the wheels.< /p>
I readily forgive them, for they know not what they say. The housekeepers who actually worked with us during my stay at Portsmouth, very fine human beings, will vouch for me, and who themselves filed complaints against my husband at the police station for false accusations of theft and non- payment of their wages.
They will also surely vouch for the veracity of the antecedents I have reflected, very briefly, I will not reveal their identities, since they might be also targeted.
What was indeed quite revolting, was a purported “constable”, who cast aspersions on my chastity by making allegations which were false, sadistic, puerile and pathetic which he very well knew. There were some kind people I knew in Dominica, including a gentleman and his wife , respectable family people who tried to help me in my predicament, at the request of the Indian Government.
In sheer amazement – and disgust - I browsed through a response to my submissions written by my husband Karan Singh (October 17, 2011). Atleast, he has surfaced after so long ! He has not revealed his and my son’s whereabouts, but in this electronic age surely the Dominican government could trace them.
The submissions made by Mr. Karan Singh, my husband, alleging that the article by me published in this newspaper was highly defamatory, cannot hold any water. He has made vicious averments, which are false, concocted, untenable. However, it is indeed true that I have been constrained to file Court proceedings in Pune (India) against Karan Singh, in which I have, inter alia, sought custody of my son as well as alimony and other reliefs.
To continue the counter to Karan Singh’s response, the hollow threats meted out by him to all and sundry, belie the facts of the matter vis-à-vis criminal complaints lodged by Delhi hotelier, Harbhajan Singh Chopra. Chopra owns the Claremount Hotel, at M.G. Road, Aaya Nagar, New Delhi 110 047 (India).
He has lodged complaints for cheating, forgery, criminal breach of trust and other offences in which it was reported that they had been duped of more than Rs. 100 crores (approx.U.S $22 million). The First Information Report No. 8 of 2008 dated October 22, 2008 u/s 384, 420, 467, 471, 477, 506, 120-B r/w 34 IPC is registered with Jt. Commissioner of Police, (Crime Branch) Police H Q, IP Estate, New Delhi.
Another FIR No. 12/ 2008. (u/s 384, 420, 467, 468, 477, 506, 120-B r/w 34 IPC) is registered with the Sunlight Colony Police Station, New Delhi. Further information and confirmation as to the status of these complaints as on date can be secured from Mr. B. K. Gupta, Commissioner of Police, Delhi (India) Tel : 91-011-23490201.
While, the submissions made in the complaints by Chopra speak for themselves, and at least to the best of my knowledge have not been regarded as being false, nor any proceedings initiated against Chopra for making false complaints to the enforcers of the law, as would happen if they were indeed held to be untrue, I am citing just an excerpt from FIR No. 12 of 2008 dated October 22, 2008 registered with the Jt Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Delhi, which will certainly show that Karan Singh’s name was not mentioned in any complaint “in the context as a representing lawyer of one of the accused”.
Surely, the veracity of these very serious criminal allegations made ought to have been checked out by the authorities concerned in the Dominican Government before the citizenships and passports were issued !
These are complaints which have been filed by Harbhajan Singh Chopra, who, according to recent talks, contends that his grievances have not been redressed and the FIRs have not been withdrawn. The intimidations issued by Karan in his “response”, are only to try and muzzle this newspaper.
As I have submitted elsewhere here, the political situation in Dominica does not concern me, since I am a citizen of India. However, had it not been for citizenships and passports issued to Karan Singh and secured by him surreptitiously for my six year old son, without my knowledge or permission, under the Economic Citizenship Program, certainly, the present scenario might have been different.
I laud the Editor of this paper for publishing my sordid saga, which will also be of public good to the citizens of Dominica.
