Sources said the last text message of Mathew, who was attached for ‘buddy duties’with a Colonel-rank officer, was to the officer in which he said “sorry.”  \nIn a release, the army said the identity of the soldier in the video was hidden and thereby not known to it.“Hence thereis no question of any inquiry that could have been ordered.”  \nThere is a view in the army that it should explore legal options against the  \n>continued on Pg 8   \nSecretariat to have CCTV surveillance system  \n􀂄nT nETWORK   \nPANAJI  \nIn a bid to safeguard the state Secretariat premises at Porvorim, which includes the administration and ministerial blocks, from any kind of suspicious activity and to keep a record of the movement of visitors as well as its staff, the state administration of Goa government has moved a proposal to cover the highest administrative institution under closed circuit television (CCTV) camera surveillance.  \nThe general administration department (GAD) has asked the public works department (PWD) to revise the estimate, which was actually prepared three years back, for installation of the CCTV cameras and other related equipment.
