“You Cannot Be Treated Like A VIP Patient”: The High Court Rejected Sajjan Kumar’s Statement.
Sajjan Kumar, the 75-year-old former congress leader, was sentenced to life imprisonment for the brutal killing of five family members in Raj Nagar, Delhi during the anti-Sikh riots in 1984.
On Friday, the Supreme Court refused to provide interim bail to Sajjan Kumar, a former congressman who was sentenced to life imprisonment and a criminal in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. He had applied for interim bail for medical reasons, but the court noticed that his condition was stable and improving. When he questioned the lawyer’s request, he appeared not to believe that he was receiving treatment at Medanta Hospital and the cost was borne by him.
“He is blamed for egregious violations. You need him to be dealt with like some VIP?” a two-part seat of Justices SK Kaul and MM Sundresh inquired.
Last month too Sajjan Kumar’s attorney had raised his customer’s medical problems, guaranteeing that he had lost somewhere in the range of eight and 10 kilograms since December 2018. Sajjan Kumar’s legal counselor fought that his customer “should he quickly be delivered from prison because of his deteriorating medical issue”.
The court then, at that point had coordinated the CBI to determine Sajjan Kumar’s ailment, and record a testimony answering to the break bail application before September 6.
In September last year too the court had denied abandon clinical grounds. A three-part seat that included then Chief Justice SA Bobde said: “It’s anything but a little case. We can’t concede bail.” The court additionally said the he was unable to remain in emergency clinic when clinical reports say there is no need.
Sajjan Kumar’s allure against his conviction and the lifelong incarceration, the court added, would be heard once actual hearings are continued; courts have been holding, generally, hearings through video meetings because of the Covid lockdown and need to keep up with social removing.
Prior the Delhi High Court had dropped a request clearing him of charges in what the appointed authorities called “destruction”. “Guarantee casualties.. reality will win,” the court had said.
The 75-year-old former congressional leader was convicted of brutally murdering five family members and setting fire to Gudwara in Raj Nagar, Delhi on November 1, 1984.
He was the main defendant in this case and a member of the district council at the time.
