Orkut sometime used for good too....!!!

I just got a forward with a subject "Never love a stranger on Orkut-----TCS gal murder case story revealed." I was really curious to know who was such an innocent girl loved a stranger from Orkut. Something is not right. isn't it?

Yup. The people who forwards the messages never wanted to know the truth. You can find real story from CNN-IBN,

"Twenty-four-year-old Manish Thakur, a naval officer based in Goa, has now been arrested for allegedly shooting Kaushambi, his girlfriend, in Hotel Sun-n-Sheel in Andheri...

...Kaushambi and Manish went to the same school in Jharkhand and were reportedly dating each other since school days. Kaushambi then moved to Mumbai for a job, and Thakur used to come down from Goa often to visit her..."


So here Cops used the Social networking web-site Orkut, to track the person who shot the victim. Look what Mumbai police said. Mumbai Police say "Thakur's profile on Orkut, the social networking site, helped them...".

Sometime back i wrote a story about Is orkut dying?, now Orkut is in news for a good reason. Maybe i have to re-think of Orkut death.

So based on the above story Orkut helped cops to trace the Shooter. So I want you to re-read the message "Never love a stranger on Orkut-----TCS gal murder case story revealed." It does not seem to fit into it.
So i would like to change it to "Orkut helps the cops to trace the murderer".

If not Orkut? tracing back the murder would have taken a year or so. Before that he'll do something and escape. That is very normal in India as of i know.

Thank you orkut!!!
