My first case as a junior lawyer was seeking compensation for custodial death. The post mortem report was crystal clear on the boot marks all over the body of the deceased. Case of the Police was liver failure since deceased was alcoholic. #JusticeForJayarajandBennicks Deceased was lodged in prison for five years so obviously no access to alcohol. It was plain bull shit. My senior entrusted me to argue the matter as it was open & shut case. There were SC precedents on such cases. The Madras HC Judge heard me for 5 mins.
