Writ Petition Nos.95 & 112 of 2003 filed by Shri Kamlesh Kumar and three others, all children of one Dr. K.M.

They are being prosecuted under the provisions of Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1973 (in short FERA), and those cases have been transferred to the Special Judge hearing the Fodder scam cases. In the above referred Criminal Writ Petitions they had challenged the transfer of those cases to the Special Court by contending that the transfer order was bad on various grounds, the principal amongst them being that the State Government had no jurisdiction to authorise the Special Judge to try these cases under FERA. Those Criminal Writ Petitions have been rejected, and hence these Special Leave Petitions (Criminal) have been filed. Facts leading this Criminal Petition are as follows:- 2.

  • Hon'ble Supreme Court Should Refrain from Passing a Judgment on the Ayodhya Ram Janma Bhoomi – Babri Masjid Matter, in View
    Dated: 7.11.2019 To HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE OF INDIA SUPREME COURT OF INDIA BHAGWAN DAS ROAD NEW DELHI 110201 Hon’ble Supreme Court should refrain from passing a judgment on the Ayodhya Ram Janma Bhoomi – Babri Masjid matter, in view of the manifest massive manipulation of the issue and associated judicial process, by the ruling dispensations (be it Congress or BJP) to implement their political agendas. Judiciary has not yet adjudicated upon the 70 years old criminal fraud committed against the nation by so called ‘Hindu’ groups who planted Ram Lalla idols in the Masjid. The Congress, with help of the administration and Judiciary, maintained status quo in order to keep the Muslims trapped as a vote banks for decades – now the BJP has taken over with the diference that they are scaring Muslims to make inroads into Hindu vote bank. Four conspicuous Issues I. Criminal case fled on 23.12.1949, on installations of idols in Babri Masjid, (u/s 147, 448, 295, in Faizabad) II. Criminal matter on Babri Masjid demolition 1992, (initiated by Liberhan Commission, currently with CBI since 2017) III. Supreme Court Judgement 1994, Ismail Faruqi case regarding ‘Masjid not essential to Islam’ (1994, 6 SCC 360) IV. Supreme Court Judgement 1995, ‘Hinduism not a religion’ (Citation 1996 AIR 1113), (PM Modi speeches in Vancouver 17.4.2015, PTI) Hon’ble The Chief Justice of India, Let me state at the outset that I, the undersigned, am not aligned to any political ideology. Kindly see the disclaimer at the end of the letter.

  • Death Penalty in India
    DEATH PENALTY IN INDIA 2018 1 2018 PUBLISHED BY Project 39A National Law University, Delhi Press Sector 14, Dwarka New Delhi 110078 Published in January 2019 @National Law University, Delhi 2019 All rights reserved WRITING Neetika Vishwanath RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS Neetika Vishwanath Pritam Raman Giriya Varsha Sharma RESEARCH ASSISTANCE Ananaya Agarwal E. Sarashika DESIGN Saumya Kishore Manish Minz Set in Druk and Portrait Text by Commercial Type Foundry. Founders Grotesk and Pitch by Klim Type Foundry, Printed and bound in India, 2019 FOREWORD This is the third edition of The Death Penalty in India: Annual Statistics published by Project 39A at National Law University, Delhi and is a continuation of our efforts to compile comprehensive data on the use of the death penalty in India. Since the first edition in 2017, we have constantly broadened our search strategies and improved upon our data collection systems to accurately track death sentence cases across the country. Despite these efforts, we face significant difficulties because of the poor data collection and maintenance by state institutions. The 162 death sentences imposed by trial courts in 2018 is the highest in a calendar year since 2000. We filed 91 applications under the Right to Information Act, 2005 (RTIs) covering all prison and home departments, and office of the Governors across states to collect information on prisoners sentenced to death. We also regularly mined the High Court and Supreme Court websites to track movement in death sentence cases. Since most Sessions Courts either do not have websites or do not regularly update them, local newspaper reports proved to be the most reliable source of information for tracking death sentences by trial courts in 2018.
