At a press conference organised by human rights body People’s Union for Civil Liberties, 11 eminent personalities condemn ‘illegal arrests’ in Bhima-Koregaon case.
In recent years, sedition and UAPA have been weaponised against critics of the govt. National Crime Records Bureau’s recently-released data confirms this.
Sharjeel Imam's arrest is not the first example where literary works have been presented as evidence by the police or judiciary to frame charges against an accused.
Khalid, who was arrested 13 September, has also been booked for sedition, murder, attempt to murder, promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion and rioting.
Except for a vague post on Facebook — Kanhaiya Kumar has been quiet on his former JNU ally and Tihar Jail comrade Umar Khalid’s arrest in the Delhi riots case.
Retired IPS officer Ribeiro writes how the police misuse UAPA to keep those arrested without a trial for months, and questions Delhi Police’s evidence in riots case.
Delhi Police Special Cell said that Umar Khalid, Tahir Hussain and Khalid Saifi among others had allegedly planned to carry out massive violence in Delhi during Trump's India visit.
In the storm around Sinauli, many academics dismissed claims of chariots being found. And the public misinterpreted the chariots as a device planted by the govt to fortify Hindutva.
Naidu’s summit brings in MoUs on same scale as Jagan’s, but CM says his plans built on speed, certainty & investor trust, with escrow accounts, simplified incentives & real-time oversight.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
Making BooHooHoo bleeding heart appeals to “free Father Stan” is all good.
A fundamental question is why was “Father” Stan arrested in the first place in relation to the Bhima-Koregaon violence.
The NIA generally does not arrest 83 year old “Father Stans” when they are out for their evening walks and UAPA is not slapped on just for a bit of a laugh.
Stop the blatant whitewashing, state the facts and let your readers judge for themselves why these people have been arrested under such serious charges.
We are tired of your leftist, boohoohoo, bleeding heart anti-national crap.
Usual leftist commies speaking up…..
