There was a time when I used to naively believe that women are naturally averse to any kind of corruption. That illusion shattered long time back. My anger over what Gupta did does not totally stem from her being a woman though I must admit that a small part of me did cringe at the thought that a woman was caught handing over country's vital documents to spies. If it were a man, I would have easily blamed it on greed. Somehow or other, I find it hard to pin that motive on a woman. But I guess I must accept the fact that we are equally capable of falling pray to the vice.
However, 10 years, in my opinion at least, is a very inadequate punishment for this serious crime. :-(
