Stan Swamy (84)
MUMBAI: The Bombay high court told Taloja prison superintendent take Elgar Parishad accused Fr Stan Swamy to JJ Hospital on Thursday, reports Swati Deshpande. The HC also instructed the JJ Hospital dean to form a panel comprising doctors, a neurophysician, ENT specialist, orthopaedic and general physician, to examine Swamy (84) and submit a report on Friday.
The bench of Justices S J Kathawalla and S P Tavade passed the order while hearing an appeal by Fr Swamy, who is alleged to be a Maoist, seeking medical bail on grounds that he has Parkinsons, hearing loss in both ears and lumbar spondylosis. He was arrested by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in October 2020.
Bombay high court
MUMBAI: Observing that Mumbai police’s approach to a tweet by Navi Numbai resident Sunaina Holey was “hypersensitive and overcautious”, the Bombay high court on Wednesday quashed a criminal case against her for her social media post last April on a gathering of migrant workers outside Bandra Terminus.
She was charged with promoting communal disharmony during the nationwide lockdown, reports Swati Deshpande.
The HC said the tweet does not disclose any guilty mind or intention of Holey (39) to commit the alleged offence under IPC Section 153A to promote enmity between different groups. The case against her was “too far-fetched”, said the court, adding that neither has any community nor any religion been named in the tweet.
