I agree with you except about dead pets picture.
It's most emotionally testing when someone has to do this in general and in particular for Ejaz since these pictures are the only ones that give him emotional strength. It's quite obvious that he finds a true emotional anchor in his animals rather than in his human relationships and I totally agree with him because I respect animals more than human beings too. They are not capable of hurting or deceit.
And given the fragile state of his mental wellbeing, this was a very very tough thing for him to do and laughing at someone's misery be it Pavitra's or Ejaz's was really cheap and disgusting as it is since Rahul never poked fun at the other sacrifices the way he did with these two. What is worse is when confronted he lied big time. I really hope this is brought to light in the WKW.
I condemn his attitude and his lie most fervently!
