Louisiana's Republican Governor-elect, Piyush 'Bobby' Jindal, has broken his silence over the murders of the two Indian graduate students on the Louisiana State University campus in Baton Rouge last week, and said he hopes the perpetrators of this horrific crime will be brought to justice soon.
The bodies of the two Indian students of Louisiana State University, who were killed last week, are likely to be flown back to their native place in Hyderabad on Thursday, official sources said in Houston on Tuesday.
Local authorities have assured Indian diplomats that the bodies, which have been kept in the local funeral home since Sunday, will be ready for flying back home after completion of some last minutes formalities. "The bodies are pending some last minute documentation and by Tuesday afternoon it will be made clear when they will be flown back home," Deputy Consul Houston Consulate K P Pillai said.
