Charges have been framed under Sections 147, 148, 153A, 302, 365, 120B, 149 & 188 of Indian Penal Code. #TahirHussain has also been charged under Sections 104,109 & 505 of IPC. #murder#delhiriots2020
"Tahir was continuously acting in a manner of SUPERVISING & MOTIVATING this mob. All these things were done to TARGET HINDUS. Every member of the mob assembled there participated in achieving the objective of targeting Hindus": Court observed. #delhiriots2020#AnkitSharmaMurder
Court: Such conducts of the members of this mob, show that they were acting out of MEETING OF THEIR MINDS and with a "CLEAR-CUT OBJECTIVE in mind, to KILL and HARM HINDUS". #delhiriots2020#TahirHussain#AnkitSharmaMurder
Thus, a "criminal conspiracy" to INDULGE INTO RIOT and to KILL HINDUS and HARM PROPERTIES OF HINDUS, is well reflected from the evidence on the record: Court #delhiriots2020#AnkitSharmaMurder#TahirHussain
Court: It was not necessary for all members of that mob to play some overt act in killing of Ankit Sharma. As per evidence, the mob was acting in well-prepared manner to ATTACK HINDUS & their properties, which signifies EXISTENCE OF PRIOR MEETING OF THEIR MIND. #delhiriots2020
Court: #TahirHussain also played role of INSTIGATOR TO KILL HINDUS.
and exhorting this mob as to NOT TO SPARE HINDUS. He INSTIGATED the mob, when Ankit came forward towards this mob. #delhiriots2020#AnkitSharmaMurder
Court Observed: The conspiracy need not be specifically to kill Ankit. When the accused persons were acting in pursuance to CONSPIRACY & COMMON OBJECT TO KILL HINDUS, it covered killing of Ankit as well
for the reasons that ANKIT WAS KILLED BECAUSE HE WAS HINDU. #delhiriots2020
On Feb 26, 2020, an FIR was registered by deceased #AnkitSharma's father, Ravinder Kumar at PS Dayalpur. He alleged that the demonstration going had been going on by #AntiCAA & #ProCAA protesters for 2-3 days at Chand Bagh Pulia, where stone pelting, arson, firing etc took place.
Complainant further alleged that on 25.02.2020, his son Ankit Sharma, who was
posted in Intelligence Bureau(IB), had come back from his office and had gone out & did not return after a long time, he started searching for his son at nearby places, but he could not find his son.
Complainant came to know from local boys that #AnkitSharma had been "THROWN" into Khajuri Khas "NALA" from the Masjid in Chand Bagh pulia after "HE WAS KILLED".
HIS BODY WAS RECOVERED FROM THE NALA. #delhiriots2020#TahirHussain
Court Order: Clothes of Ankit Sharma were missing, there was underwear only on his body. The deceased has sustained "SHARP INJURIES" on his head, face, chest, back & his waist. HIS FACE & OTHER PARTS OF BODY HAD BEEN BURNT BY ACID TO CONCEAL HIS IDENTITY. #delhiriots2020
Shortly before #DelhiHighCourt—
Plea filed by @DelhiPolice challenging Trial Court’s order which discharged Sharjeel Imam and ten others in connection with the Jamia Milia Islamia University violence case of 2019. #JamiaVoilence#DelhiPolice
Additional Solicitor General (ASG) Sanjay Jain appears for State. Refers to his written submissions.
ASG: The trial court order is perverse & unsustainable. Non consideration or selective consideration of the third chargesheet makes the order more perverse.
#SupremeCourt to pronounce judgment in the plea moved by #scba to convert land allotted to the top court for construction of Advocates' chambers
Last week, a #CJIDYChandrachud led bench had opined that it could not pass judicial orders directing to convert land that was allotted to the Supreme Court, into chamber blocks for lawyers. #SupremeCourt
CJI reads the verdict.
CJI: The SCBA cannot claim the entire land for chamber block for lawyers. The #SupremeCourtOfIndia works on both the judicial and administrative side. Hence, this issue can be considered by the court on its administrative side.
#SupremeCourt Constitution Bench to consider if 'group of companies' doctrine should be read into Section 8 of the Arbitration Act or whether it can exist independent of any statutory provision
SG Tushar Mehta: If we can begin with the questions formulated in the reference orders as it may have ramifications..
Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for intervenors: We would need some time to prepare for this. #SupremeCourtOfIndia
#DelhiHighCourt to hear #PIL challenging the validity of provisions of #WaqfAct1995 regarding the management of waqf properties. As there are no similar laws for followers of other religions, PIL states that it is against secularism, unity and integrity of the nation
Adv Kirtiman Singh (Respondent): Transfer petition has been filed and it is pending in the Supreme Court.
I have also filed my application seeking time to file a reply.
Court to Adv Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay: Sir your petition is pending in the Supreme Court?
Adv. Upadhyay: The problem is that we knew only about the 2 petitions that were filed in Indore and Allahabad. But in the reply, it is mentioned that 120 PILs have been filed.
Adv Bhardwaj: I have placed on record the previous judgment passed by Justice Swatanter Kumar on record as directed by the court.
I have submitted a copy to the other side as well (Government & NDMC) but they have not complied with the same.
Court: There is no such order on record
Adv Bhardwaj: It was an oral order.
In between the previous date and the last date, there have been frequent monkey fights.
This is a PIL regarding the matter of monkey menace.
