#SupremeCourt hears plea seeking court monitored investigation into audio recordings allegedly implicating former Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh in the state's ethnic violence.

Bench: Justice Sanjay Kumar and Justice Alok Aradhe. Image
NFSU Gandhinagar earlier informed the Court that the audio exhibits were tampered with and not scientifically fit for voice comparison, and therefore, no opinion on similarity or dissimilarity of the speakers could be offered.

The petitioner has contended that the Manipur police forwarded only short edited clips to the NFSU, Gandhinagar instead of the complete 48 minute recording.

Counsel for state seeks time to seek instructions.

Bench: If you did not forward entire recording then...
Advocate Prashant Bhushan: this matter has been listed on 10 occasions and government counsel has appeared every time. They are aware that in our petition itself we have placed the transcript of the 48 minute conversation on record and supplied the tape.
ASG Aishwarya Bhati: we got the full recording only after the last hearing. This was never served upon us. We kept on asking everyone.

Bhushan: They could have asked us, they appeared on 10 occasions before the court.
Bench: Why didn't you serve?

Bhushan: Formal notice was not there.

Bench: Now you send the entire recording.

Bhati: No difficulty.
Order: The entire 48 minutes of the conversation in question along with the admitted voice recordings of the former Manipur CM are available.
All the voice recordings furnished to the respondents by the learned counsel for the petitioner shall also be included therewith and forwarded to the National Forensic Science University Gandhinagar.
Order: NFSU to expedite the process and submit the report to this court in sealed cover.

#SupremeCourt to continue hearing today at 10.30 AM the #StrayDogs case

Bench: Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta and NV Anjaria

For the past two days, the matter has been heard extensively, with the Bench primarily examining the issue of stray dogs in institutional premises

Intervenors (dog lovers and NGOs) are praying for modification of the Court's earlier directions, so that stray dogs are released in the same area from where they are picked up

They have suggested some scientific models, adoption of which can tackle dog population and eliminate dog bite incidents in a few years

Victims' side is arguing inter-alia for removal of stray dogs from residential complexes/housing societies.Image
Bench says it will be hearing the matter today till 11.55 AM

Sr Adv Mahalakshmi Pavani (for an animal rights activist): I want to highlight plight of women dog feeders...there are vigilantes harassing and beating women, attacking them

J Nath: Lodge an FIR, what stops you? It's a criminal offense

Pavani: Authorities are silent, that's like endorsing. In [...], 50 persons came in house, disrobed, attacked woman. Beat up her husband also

J Nath: We can't take care of individual cases. It's a law and order problem

Pavani: No FIRs are being registered.

#SupremeCourt #StrayDogs
Bench: Go to Magistrate or HC, there's Lalita Kumari judgment

Pavani: It's happening across the country! In Haryana, societies have hired bouncers...at one place, in 38 seconds, woman slapped so many times! Rampant illegal breeding of dogs happening

J Mehta: Nothing to do with stray dogs issues, if you have suggestions, you can give

Pavani: Due to import of foreign dogs, dogs are being abandoned as strays. People using derogatory statements for women, saying women sleep with dogs for satisfaction!

J Nath: People can use derogatory statements for anyone. Things are said about us also. Take action.

#SupremeCourt to continue hearing today at 10.30 AM the #StrayDogs case

Bench: Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta and NV Anjaria

Yesterday, the matter was heard extensively, with the Bench primarily examining the issue of stray dogs in institutional premises

It was questioned whether spaces such as courts, schools and hospitals should have canine presence at all

"Should people suffer because of the authorities' failure to comply with the ABC rules?" the Court askedImage
Link to a report on yesterday's hearing:

#SupremeCourt #StrayDogs

livelaw.in/top-stories/su…
Amicus Sr Adv Gaurav Aggarwal: Remaining 4 states have now filed their affidavits. 16 states are done, 7 are left. I will submit revised note

Sr Adv CU Singh: With regard to SOP of Animal Welfare Board, 4 big states have filed formal objections. It might be of relevance. Amicus may confirm...In Delhi, there is rodent and monkey menace also. What happens when there's abrupt removal of canines - rodent population shoot up. They are disease carriers. Canines maintain balance

J Mehta: Is there a correlation? In a lighter vein, dogs and cats are enemies. We should promote more cats, since they are enemies of rodents. We have not directed removal of every dog from street. They have to be treated as per rules

Singh: Let dogs be regulated in manner which has proved efficacious - sterilization and re-release in same area

J Mehta: How many dogs each hospital should have, tell us? beside each bed?

Bench: Justices Dipankar Datta and Satish Chandra Sharma

Yesterday, the Court was informed that the motion for impeachment was rejected by Deputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha.Image
For yesterday's proceedings, this thread can be followed:
Senior Advocate Sidharth Luthra for Justice Varma: we have two similar worded proceedings before two co equal branches of the Parliament - the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. Same allegations same facts. The question is whether they can meet different fates. In one house fine but the moment they are in both houses...
