SUPREME COURT PULLED UP LOWER COURT IN JHARKHAND FOR DELIVERING VERDICT THROUGH WHATSAPP, SAYS IS THIS SOME KIND OF A JOKE


The Supreme Court has pulled up a Jharkhand trial court for using WhatsApp call to pronounce the order of charge to former minister of Jharkhand and his MLA wife, who are accused in a 2016 case where violent clashes between villagers and police had left four persons dead. The court took serious note of the submissions and said, what is happening in Jharkhand. This process cannot be allowed, and we cannot allow administration of justice to be brought into disrepute. We are seeing a trial being conducted through WhatsApp. This cannot be done. What kind of a trial is this? Is this a kind of joke? The Bench issued a notice on the plea by both the accused, who have sought transfer of their cases from Hazaribagh to New Delhi, and asked the state to respond to it within two weeks.
