I do not know if the Indian Navy or army have a unit to correct the behavior pattern of our naval officers. I am saying that there are some naval officers I know who are abusing their own wife and mother at home. They do the mental harrassment and torture to their women. What can the Indian Defence and Navy can do or is there any correctional services which can help these officers mentally and help to remove their mental sickness.. If you can then please contact me at the above mentioned e-mail address and I would like to tell the names of those officers. there should be an organization by the naval officer’s wives to help these sick or schziphrenic people who desperately needs help. And surprisingly their officers does not know that and they are working in the navy. scary
