    "content": "Hon. Speaker, a quick comment on this is that we have cases that could be arising out of neglect or normal crossfire. The main thing is that once there is a clear case like what we have in front of us, where it is very clear that a serviceman under the service of this Government goes ahead to commit this kind of accident, it needs to be recognized as an accident. Beyond this, some kind of action needs to be taken by the Government. The whole thing of abandoning such a matter once we accept that the shooting was as a result of crossfire, or it was unintended, then we have victims like Quinter. In my view, there has to be a proper way of handling such victims by the Government, in terms of taking care of them, rather than abandoning them like the way Quinter was abandoned. They have to meet all the hospital expenses. The little girl is yet to undergo additional medical attention. It is not right for the Government to abandon such a victim. That is my comment, Hon. Speaker."
