GOVERNMENT A LAW UNTO THEMSELVES? It is reported that the Allahabad HC has asked the Yogi goverment of UP to immediately remove the hoardings put up with photos and address of anti CAA protestors to name and shame them. They were all arrested and all granted bail due absolutely no proof of crime. The DM and police were asked under what law these actions were carried out! Not only do unauthorised photos taken/published without permission are against privacy laws, but mentionning addresses puts them and families lives in danger! Further these are not lumpen elements but peaceful unarmed protestors of all types including ladies and former IPS officer etc. No punishment for order reportedly issued by Yogi Aditnath and the intended damage to arrested protestors already achieved! Wither justice? The Advocate General termed the act as deterrent. A judge hearing the 2002 riot case involving BJP minister Maya Kodani is transferred by the Gujarat HC when hearing final arguments. A new judge may have to hear final arguments afresh! Reportedly a total of 82 people are facing trial in the 2002 Naroda Gam killing case and this is the year 2020! A strong prejudiced government is strongarming its own people it appears, by trying to strike fear and terror outside Constitutional law.
