The key that beckons for questioning when something very unpleasant happened is not who, where, when, what, to whom, how but…I wonder why many people are so curious and inquisitive about what does not matter most when asking questions during investigation. The major focus might be on the place of the incident. People would like to know the locality, the state or even the country where such ugly incident has happened purposely because of their visitation for confirmation and recording for futuristic uses. Some people would go extra miles to the place of the incident in order to make money out of it without considering the risk at hand.
Some would be asking, who are the people involved? Their tribes, the state and even the country where these people, the perpetrators came from will be of great importance to them during investigation and questioning for certainty. Not for anything but because a particular set of people are known for notorious activities over the time. So, this would quickly help to jump into conclusion without much ado.
Many people would be after the time when such thing happened without being aware despite the fact that they were much around then and even very close to the place of the incident whereas the news of the ugly incident did not reach them in time which caught them unaware. People would think that those who were asking for the time of incident were sympathizers but not knowing that they were doing that for their own selfish gains.
People who were affected in the unpleasant incident were also put into consideration. How many people were injured or dead in the course of the incident? What is degree of their injury? Were they discharged after first aid to their various homes? How many people were referred to the hospital for further treatment? How many people died at the spot, on the way to the hospital or in the hospital? All these questions and many more would be found at the lips of the investigators for record purposes and statistical analyses.
With all these above-mentioned points, the key to a great story that beckons for questioning is nothing but why? Why did it happen? What was the reason behind this happening? What were the perpetrators looking for or what was their gain from the incident? This particular point helps to further the investigation to really know the root cause of the incident in order to find a lasting solution to it or prevent its recurrence in future.
If there is no smoke, there wouldn’t be fire. Every incident emanates from a source. And every problem has a solution but it depends on the methodology and procedures followed in tackling the problem. A round peg cannot be put in a square hole. A solution to a problem can be sorted out and applied to put an end to a problem thereby preventing someone from continually asking the question why? Any story that does not answer the question why is incomplete.
