THIS IS A COMMENT MADE
I am a bit confused! if max is not guilty and he has been held by the police for so long, how come you haven't been able to prove to the court his alibi? from the press reports it is clear max has been trying to destroy a family...or else how come neelima didn't walk out of the house? and the other kids and the wife?
ANSWER TO THIS COMMENT
First of all police dont know when the children died. There have been statements from his family and other people who were with Max on the two days prior to discovering the kids. As for the final remark you made about ... or else how come Neelma etc, well i just think that doesnt deserve any type of response because it is just so senseless. By the way, the wife is alive and living in the house.
DARONS COMMENT well yours is just a personal attack and just lacking any kind of anything.
NOT TAKING TRIAL SERIOUSLY COMMENT you are very mistaken, but like Daron, you may think as you see fit.

Vijay isn't the one on trial so he has no need to refute anything. I'm not denying or approving anything that he has done but no matter what dirt is dug up from this case it still doesn't change that Max murdered the Singh's. Innocent until proven guilty - i completely support but I know both families and both sides of the story and he will be found guilty - even if his family have to commit pergury to give him an alibi - it still won't be enough to save him. See you in court.
ANSWER TO COMMENT no one in his family would ever commit pergury, whomever you are you said you know both families, so im quite sure that if you did, you would know that. But like i stated, you may also have your opinion, and yes, definitly see you in court.
As for your comment Fred, yes we will see.

I believe in innocent until proven guilty and the principals of that. I'll be honest and say I don't know a lot about this case, and I think it is great that you are supporting Max the way you are. I do have a question though - how can you be so sure of Max's innocence? There are a lot of people out there that would have said the same thing about their family and friends, but, when the truth came out in the end they were guilty! Have you thought about that at all??
ANSWER.... Absolutely... and all i can tell you is that i know he is no murderer because i have no doubt whatsoever. But i can understand your point as you do not know him personally and you are also somewhat influenced by media that does not always print the truth.

people who really want the truth need to go and find out for themselves at the committal hearing, especially when cross examined by the barrister. i was a bit unsure of what the truth was myself but after taking the liberty to go to his hearing on a paritcular day, i think anyone with any common sense will be able to see what really goes on in the qld justice system. i sure did when i started to go to peoples court proceedings for the purpose of my book, which is about the judicial system and what really goes on. and if anyone has ever seen it first hand or been through it, they will agree with me that the media is greatly responsible for encouraging corruption here in qld by not reporting the full truth. they only report what suits them. look at the recent police corruption leak, how much of the truth did the media actually cover? they should try to make the minds of its people wise, not biased, prejudiced and contribute to making people judge others. my prayers are will all for justice.both the singh family, and the sica family for god knows the truth and we all know that if anyone chooses to turn to him, he will be the one to ultimately give them justice and reveal his glory.

Shirley Singh, whose husband, Vijay, accuses Brisbane’s Max Sica of killing their children, doesn’t like the questions she’s being asked during Sica’s committal hearing. The hearing is being held in Brisbane Magistrate’s Court to establish whether there is enough evidence to bring Sica to trial. It’s incredibly intriguing.
Sica’s lawyer, Sam Di Carlo, has been questioning the Singhs intensely for the past week in an attempt, as he says today, to “establish the likelihood of another person being responsible” for the deaths, in 2003.
Vijay Singh and his wife were in Fiji at the time the murders were carried out.
"If you are trying to prove that my husband is violent and that he is the cause of what happened let me remind you that we were in Fiji at the time," Mrs Singh said.
"I'm not trying to prove one or another person did it," Mr Di Carlo replied, referring to the crimes for which his client, Max Sica, is currently in court.
But there’s more.
Mrs Singh told the defence lawyer yesterday [20 August] she could not understand why the abuse she suffered at Vijay Singh's hands was "the main topic" of his questioning.
"In 25 years of marriage, 50 times being assaulted is just a minor thing," she said, insisting the attacks were irrelevant to her children's deaths.
"What are you driving at?"
Mr Di Carlo, who spent more than an hour quizzing Mrs Singh about her childhood, her husband's business dealings, his extra-marital affairs and the physical abuse she suffered, told her he simply had to do his job.
"I'm not driving at anything," Mr Di Carlo said.
"I understand your pain ... I don't think anybody can understand your pain but I'm doing the best I can."
and heres the rest of it......
ReplyDeleteVijay was on the stand earlier.
During another dramatic day of cross-examination by Sica's barrister Sam Di Carlo yesterday [17 August], Mr Singh said the accused man had influenced Neelma to lie when she wrote in an email about a threat by her father to chop her up.
Mr Di Carlo read out the email, allegedly written by Neelma to Sica in October 2002 when she and her mother, Shirley Singh, were in Fiji investigating an affair Mr Singh was having with a Fijian woman.
In the email Neelma allegedly wrote that she had confronted her father, who was then in Australia, about the affair and six or seven other women she believed he had been sleeping with.
"I spoke to Dad and blew the f--- out of him. He told me that when I get back to Brisbane he will cut me to pieces. He said he's going to bash us up and he's really going to do it."
Asked if the threat was made, Mr Singh said it was not, and that Sica was responsible for his daughter's words.
"He is the one who instigates very much my daughter to do that," he said.
"Why should I be saying that? I did not."
The trial continues, providing endless topics of conversation for the people of Queensland. In my view, Shirley’s prompt denial of guilt and her ready excuse that she and her husband were overseas at the time of the murders, makes her sound guilty. And her husband’s erratic temperament is also a matter of interest for a spectator.
The upshot of all the evidence is that Vijay Singh killed his children because he was sexually abusing his youngest daughter, Sidhi, 12. Son Kunal, 18, and daughter, Neelma, 24, also died. This may be because they were aware of the goings-on. In a traditional Indian family such as this, silence would have been rather more usual than the alternative.
Sica is an easy target for Singh because he violently disagreed with Sica’s (39) love affair with Neelma, which took place in 2002 and 2003. Vijay Singh claims that Sica threatened him, which is possible, but it seems unlikely to me that Sica did it. If Singh were really abusing his daughter, as Sica claimed, then he has motive. As for opportunity, he could easily have organised for another person to have entered the house and killed the children.
Vijay Singh further presents an unbalanced personality by admitting that he and his wife once fantasised about having sex with Sica. The children were killed with an religious rake, an accoutrement of a Hindu god.

"NOT TAKING TRIAL SERIOUSLY COMMENT you are very mistaken, but like Daron, you may think as you see fit." - In response to this comment.
ReplyDeleteI was at the court hearing on one of the days (2nd day) and court was delayed half an hour, due to the fact that there were "problems" in the holiding cell with Mr Sica.
As well as that, Mr Sica was to busy waving to his family members that were wearing slogan shirts whilst poor Shirley Singh was crying at the witness stand recalling memories of her beloved children.
I believe Max Sica is guilty.
I dont think it is a crime for a man to wave to his family members especially if this man has been held in a remand centre for a crime he did not commit. Yes Mrs Singh was crying in court but i also believe Max`s mother and some family members were crying as well. I think the pain and heartache goes all the way round. As for the slogan shirts well it is up to the individual to read them or not, just as it is up to the individual to think what he or she chooses to think.
ReplyDeletewhoever wrote that stuff about the 2nd day of commital, is quite mistaken and is trying to mislead the public. why would u do that whoever u are? i was a member of the gallery and on the 2nd day, it was vijay singh who was on the stand and not shirley. it seems to me that ur a member of the singh family from the way that u have spoken, just so happened to be that i was in court that day taking with the reporters for my book which is soon to come out about the judicial system in queensland.i did this alongside them as i want to show just how much the press is limited in writing about actual events. but dont worry,members of the public can make their own minds up as i have spoken to the some people about including evidence from the actual court transcripts which i will be including in my book as examples at a later stage. but i must say, i did see a member of the sica family (and upon doing research found out that she is the wife of max sica) who has been taking notes of everything thats been said everyday to help the defence team. i understand that legal aid has refused to fund sica's lawyers and has always wanted to keep the matter inhouse (as they do in many cases where they want to put people behind bars coz of lack of evidence) and thus, the family has been trying to assist the lawyers wherever they can. and if anyone has commonsense, they will know that a person, while taking notes for court purposes cannot lie as the transcripts will eventually show what the real proceedings in court were. i reckon people need to go in themselves to find out the truth about the shortcomings of media and to understand the reality of the legal justice system. its just a pity that mrs sica refuses to talk to anyone about the matter as shes waiting for the right time and day, along with mr sica and the rest of the sica family. tells a lot about them, that they know where the truth will make a difference, and unlike the cops who have given max sica a trial by media over the last few years,they refuse to give the police the satisfaction of responding in such a childish manner by givin up their defence. i must say, it will be interesting to eventually find out, as the real truth about everything never comes out at commitals but during trials. as i said. i believe that both families are victims not just the singh family, coz i have personally seen and investigated a lot of matters where people in public are misled about the truth due to the shortcomings of the press and if only someone would actually take time to witness things for themselves, they will not need to take part in a debate about anything, remember if the press is not doing its job properly to make the mind of its people sound and wise, its up to an individual to witness the truth.
ReplyDeletei was at the court today again for another case and while there, decided to go and sit in for a while at the sica hearing. there were a couple of neighbours (who lived behind the singhs house) who volunteered some information to the police on 23/04/03. jeffery spencer bliss and his partner, kim foster were entertaining guests on the rear deck of their house from where they had a direct view of the singh house and around 8.30pm heard what appeared to be a "blood curdling" female scream (as described by kim foster) followed by three loud cracks which they all described as being similar to gunshots, but not actually "gunshots." they all commented on it and expected to hear the sounds of a police and/or ambulance siren. as they looked towards the singhs house, they noticed that the lights were on. they described it as coming from the direction of the singh house.early the next morning, ms foster went for her usual walk with her then next door neighbour olive around 5.30am and saw a male who appeared to be approaching them, but then ran up the hill towards the singh residence and jumped over the neighbours fence.ms foster was able to provide an identicate photo of the man, who she described as being in his 40's to 50's. she described him as baldish and of a thin built. its amazing as so far there has seemed to be a number of people who have heard screams and seen the light on at the singh residence on the monday night, yet the police keep insisting and has led the public to believe that the murders occurred on the sunday night(11pm)and the early hours on monday morning(9am), however majority of the evidence has pointed to the monday night. i wonder why they are doing this, maybe perhaps sunday suits them better. something very fishy is going on, and if anyone that has followed this case closely will smell a rat a mile away. what people from the public have to remember is that "he said" "she said" is all hearsay in a court of law, especially in a case where the victims are deceased. the actual evidence is what counts, especially if it comes from people who neither knew the singh or the sica family.i also came to learn today that the primary detective who was in charge of the entire investigation and overlooked it (mr byron paton who retired from the police force about 2 to 3 years later) still hasnt provided a statement yet. apparently all detective zitny(the person who took over as head) had to say was that they are in the process of obtaining it. i mean come on seriously, use ur commonsense, that is one of the first things the police should have done and not five weeks into the commital which is set to finish this week, but the way things have gone, seems like more time will have to be assigned to mr sica's commital hearing which may get adjourned to continue later because of the police not providing all the material to the defense, and only providing what seems fit to them to implicate mr sica for the murders. i also found out that the dpp was unable to answer a simple question as to if any type of scientific examination took place in regards to the tyre tread patterns found in the area and if not, why not. mr zitny also said on the stand that an identicate photo had never been prepared, yet today one seems to have been provided to the defence barrister. for the sake of the singhs and sicas, i hope and pray that gods justice takes place and not that of men, as we all know that men are just vessels.
