Court noted the businessmen brothers chose to travel to Phuket rather than come to Goa’s Arpora when news broke of the fire at their club that ultimately claimed 25 lives last December.
Top court said revering past judgments defeats Article 141 of Constitution, which says that a Supreme Court verdict is 'law of the land', meaning a bench’s pronouncement is final.
The court came down heavily on two district court judges who granted interim protection to the accused despite the Supreme Court rejecting his anticipatory bail application.
In the past, the Supreme Court has struck down bail conditions on grounds of arbitrariness, lack of fairness, & violation of the accused’s fundamental rights, among others.
HC of J&K and Ladakh last year granted bail to journalist Peerzada Shah Fahad, holding that probe agency has to justify arrest based on doctrine of ‘clear and present danger’.
Along with Sharjeel Imam’s, Khalid’s bail plea is to be heard in HC on 25 November by justices Navin Chawla and Shalinder Kaur. His petition has been rejected in court earlier.

The lessons of earlier American regime-change efforts should be obvious. The dismantling of Iran’s regime could lead to the breakdown of state authority and the rise of warlords.
Shortfall could hit tens of millions of homes if gas cargoes due in March do not start moving within days, Bloomberg has learnt. India buys over 90% of its LPG from the Middle East.
The Pakistani political leadership is weak and devoid of any intellect. Its diplomacy is entirely India-China-US focused and suffers from a presumptive view of Afghanistan as a vassal.
The bigger issue in India is the amount of time it takes for a case to reach conclusion. Jagdish Tytler is still being prosecuted etc for the 1984 riots. He will probably pass away before the case concludes. Supreme Court of India has been self righteous in its observations but has done absolutely nothing to reduce time to finish cases. All manners of excuses are presented. But nothing gets done. All folks who are guilty., even terrorists can claim innocence after a while because the case is in progress. Consider folks like Yasin Malik. They can kidnap murder and them claim a change of heart in the 20 + years of prosecution. I think the Supreme Court and Justice System in India has been praised and feared too long due to fear of reprisal by everyone. There is no accountability from these folks.
No journalist dare ask any judge in any interview, what they owe the people of India and have they delivered? If so what are the repercussions? Anyone who is causing delays in a the normal execution of a prosecution should be severely fined. If it is the Lawyers, they need to be suspended and debarred. If it is judges we need to know how many cases can a judge handle in a day and are they doing less or more? Why is this all hidden from the people?
The Left-liberal media outlets have for long been batting on behalf of the likes of Sharjeel Imam and Umar Khalid. These two have certainly become the darling of the Left-liberal cabal.
I clearly remember that when the JNU circus started, Kanhaiya Kumar and Shehla Rashid were the favourites of this cabal. Back then, they just could not get enough of those two. But now, it seems, they no longer enjoy the blessings of this cabal.
Umar Khalid along with Sharjeel Imam are the new favourites. Of late, even reputed journalists like Mr. Shekhar Gupta and Mr. Rajdeep Sardesai are championing their cause.
