    Very unfortunate and sad. Tragic step taken by the son of powerful minister/politician. Gone are gone, but the father who is a politician has to suffer until he dies. People should earn legal earnings and should not amass wealth by illegal means, a wealth that really belongs to the masses. Can this minister bring back his son and granddaughter even if he pledges all his wealth???? NO. He cant. Peace of mind and health are gift of Creator. Any one earns legally an spends legally on his faimly/poor shall no doubt be blessed with health and peae of mind and long life. See the personal life of some of our politicians who dont have the basic eithics, wives are killed. With political patron, justice is not done. But in God's court I am sure justice shall be done and noone would escape God's addalat. Almost all politicians of present time are restless and they dont have any peace of mind, because they themselves are corrupt, selfish. The intensity of such horrible incidents would only raise in the future and it wont surprise us at all. Remember Peace of mind and good health are no doubt the gift of God and God blesses whom He wills and curses whom He wills.
