Nagpur: Nagpur bench from the Bombay High Court has ordered an investigation into lawyers for allegedly suppressing facts while submitting a guarantee application of a rape convict.
Justice Rohit Deo has asked the main district and session to assess here to investigate allegations against lawyers who practiced in a lower court and submit a report on Friday at 2:30 a.m.
before this case was heard.
Recently, the same judge has slapped a fine of RS50,000 in the 22-year-old student of Shubham Soni, who was accused of killing, after he submitted a plead of Plea in HC.
He also made it difficult for his lawyer for the same reason to suppress the fact while not telling HC from the second guarantee application.
“I was limited to recording strong reservations and disagreements of unhealthy hunting / forum practices and indeed insulting by submitting consecutive assurance applications before different judges / courts without revealing the required details,” said Justice Deo.
The direction came while hearing a petition for the guarantee submitted by Swapnil Ramteke, accused of raping a 13-year-old girl on July 12.
The defendant was ordered based on section 376 along with the protection of children from sexual violations (Pocso) acting by.
Police Wathoda last year.
He moved HC after his first pleasure plea was canceled by the Judge RR Patare session on March 19, 2021.
The suppression of the facts emerged after additional prosecutors Nitin Rode was brought forward that the applicant had pressed that the second guarantee application was delayed before another session assessed SR Trivedi.
Then, Ramteke’s advice, involved by his brother to beg for HC, also supported that fact.
Strangely, the second guarantee application was submitted by the lawyer concerned, which has submitted the first in the court session, but without consulting his applicant or brother.
Even the applicant’s signature or his brother was not taken on the second application.
“If what is proposed factually, a serious problem of professional violations and / or an insulting effort to overthrow the administration of justice can arise.
Without a preliminary investigation, it is unfair to observe further,” Justice Deo said.
He directed the principal judge to submit a photocopy of the entire first and second application records submitted by Ramteke and to record Prima Facie found whether it was preferred without instructions and whether all facts were disclosed.
Registrar (Judicial) was told to deliver the direction of HC to the principal’s judge immediately.
