Follow this thread for updates - J Nariman: one of the first cases in which Shantiji was engaged was a criminal revision. It was a absolutely hopeless case of a person beating a policeman. He was hopeful because he found 2 procedural lapses. But he obviously lost that case and he was a little disturbed that he lost it. He ought to have lost it.
