THREAD Re #BabriDemolitionCase you need to ask 4 critical questions:
1) as the Indian judiciary ever accepted the principle of command responsibility?
𝗡𝗢 - if it did, every neta, babu & officer would be in jail. That means nothing would ever function here
2) Has Indian jurisprudence ever accepted “fruits of a poisonous tree”?
𝗡𝗢 because given arcane policing & obsolete investigative methods in this country no prosecution would ever take place
3) Were any of the 32 acquitted seen engaged in the actual demolition?
𝗡𝗢 in which case there is no direct case against them. Only a case of command responsibility- which as we’ve seen in tweet 1 isn’t accepted. Instead we have incitement laws
4) was the unclear audio “beyond all reasonable doubt”?
𝗡𝗢 in which case the accused benefit from the presumption of innocence. This isn’t negotiable subject to if you like the defendants or not.
Basically everyone claiming judiciary or rule of law has been compromised seem to think that the rule of law depends on overturning these existing realities when it suits them. Unclear audio of JNU “tukde tukde” for them equals acquittal. But not when it comes to Babri?
