disturbing justice

the sentencing of amarmani tripathi and his wife in the madhumani in madhumita mishra murder case has come as a relief. after the sentencings of anand mohan and syed shahbuddin, he is the third major bahubali to be put behind bars. i am hopeful that the indian judicial system is in a long corrective drive and the current sentencing spree can only unsettle other such bahubali's.
however the question that nobody else raises is why madhumita fell for amarmani. let us look at the facts-
1) she carried an affair with amarmani despite knowing that he was married.
2) she willingly accept the perks of bungalows and vehichles that came with being amarmani's pet despite knowing that he was a corrupt and criminal person.
3) being a poet who railed against the injustices of the system her eagerness to bed and bear child for a man who is a symbol of the weaknesses of the system is horrible.
probably her poetry was a mere bluster. and she liked the easy life that amarmani provided. and she paid for it with her life. it is sad but eyeopening.
