Navi Pillay

by Vishnugupta-Thursday, 29 Aug 2013

 

She has all the credentials that an international diplomat should possess; her academic background is impeccable, her posture is imposing and her communication skills are excellent. Yet she is portrayed by most dictators and 'democratic-pretenders,' be it Syria or Egypt, Myanmar or Pakistan, as a trouble-maker, for what she finds out and her declarations could be harsh to those who wield power. They could be utterly unpalatable to the abusers of power. To those rulers who are perpetually engaged in covering up their sinful acts against their own subjects, to those practitioners of inhuman treatment to those who don't agree and conform, to those who dare to hold a view contrary to that of the rulers, Navi Pillay might indeed be a pest. But that is her job. One cannot find fault with her for doing her job with exceptional skill, aptitude and daring. If she does not do that, she does not belong there, period.
