Breaking News LIVE, October 26, 2021: Hello and Welcome to ABP News LIVE Blog! The Supreme Court will continue hearing the Lakhimpur Kheri violence case on Tuesday, a week after it rapped the Uttar Pradesh police for “dragging its feet” in the investigation.
Noting that the special investigation team (SIT) probing the violence needed to get more witnesses to record their statements, the top court adjourned the proceedings last week to October 26. The bench asserted that the SIT must identify the vulnerable witnesses, provide them protection and record their statements under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), as it will have more evidentiary value.
The Delhi High Court has said that prima facie, a suit filed by several doctors' associations against Yoga guru Ramdev for allegedly spreading misinformation against allopathy amid the COVID-19 pandemic deserves consideration and cannot be "thrown out" at the first stage.
Justice C Hari Shankar said at the present stage, it only needs "to see if allegations in the plaint make out a case to be entertained".
"The allegations may be right or maybe wrong. He may say he did not say any such thing... It needs to be looked into," said the judge.
"Prime facie, it appears that the present suit can't be thrown out at the threshold without granting leave to institute the suit," said the court which had earlier sought Ramdev's stand on the institution of the proceeding.
