[VACATION BENCH HEARING: Arnab Goswami vs State of Maharashtra]
Supreme Court bench led by Justice DY Chandrachud to begin hearing appeal against Bombay HC order denying #ArnabGoswami interim bail in 2018 abetment to suicide case at 10.30 am
The plea by Goswami in SC states that his arrest was "illegal, mala-fide and politically motivated as evident from the multifarious proceedings initiated against him, his news channels, @republic and @RepublicBhart
at the behest of the
political dispensation."
Shortly after #ArnabGoswami plea was listed for today, Senior Adv Dushyant Dave raised questions on the selective listing of cases by SC Registry. In a rebuttal of sorts, Goswami's wife, Samyabrata stated why did Dave keep silent during @VinodDua7 & @pbhushan1 urgent hearings
TN Govt informs #MadrasHighCourt that permission to conduct #VelYatra by @BJP4TamilNadu was rejected against citing various reasons including that they have not respected rule of law
HC has granted liberty to challenge the rejection of permission and kept the main matter pending
AG Vijay Narayan submitted that processions were carried out in violation of COVID-19 norms despite a ban on processions. A COVID-19 GO places a ban on processions till Nov 30. He is prepared to argue on the validity of the GO, AG added.
Senior Adv Colin Gonsalves appearing for the Petitioners submit that there are 135 notifications issued by GOI and companies which say that Aarogya Setu App is mandatory. These have not been withdrawn.
Data collected with authorisation of law is illegal. I want them to advertise and tell the country that the App is voluntary, Gonsalves.
