Kanjhawala killing: 6 accused sent to judicial custody for 2 weeks, Delhi court reprimands police for delay in collecting evidence

In the Kanjhawala killing, the Rohini Court has sent all the six accused to judicial custody for 14 days. Before this, these accused were in police custody for a few days. But this time when the accused were produced on Monday, the court reprimanded the police. The court asked why the police does not collect all the CCTV footage at one go.

In fact, during the hearing held on Monday, the police said before the court that a CCTV has come to the fore, in which it is seen that once the accused got down from the car, and showing the others that something was stuck under the car, but they still kept driving. The police also told the court that they have collected 6 CCTV footage so far. But the court was not satisfied with this type of investigation by the police. The court bluntly asked the police as why all the footage were not collected at once.

Were you waiting for evidence to get tampered: Court asks Delhi police

The court asked the police if they knew how many government CCTV cameras were installed in that area? How long will it take the police to collect evidence? What were the police waiting for? Were they waiting for the evidence to get tampered? On this rebuke of the court, the police could only say that they were not getting full cooperation. The arrested accused were continuously misleading the police. The police also informed the court that more investigation is being done on the role of accused Ashutosh in the case. It has even been said that the conspiracy angle cannot be ruled out and investigation is going on in this direction as well. At this time, the accused are being interrogated by confronting them. At the same time, face recognition is also being done from CCTV footage.

Accused knew that Anjali was stuck under their car

On the other hand, the accused arrested in this case had made a big disclosure on Sunday. They confessed during police interrogation that they knew that Anjali was trapped under their car but kept on driving out of fear. During this, on the route till Kanjhawala, they took several U-turns. The accused told the police during interrogation that they were afraid that if the girl was taken out of the car, a case of murder would be filed. They will get caught on the bad side in this case, so after the accident, the accused did not try to get the girl out from under their car. They said that they were very scared, so they kept rotating the car again and again and had no idea where to go. They waited till the girl drops from the car and kept driving.

Scope of suspicion increased

Now then the role of many people in this matter is being considered suspicious. On one hand, the role of Ashutosh among the accused is raising many questions in the mind of the police, while on the other hand, Anjali’s friend Nidhi is also under the scanner. More questions about Nidhi because she is the biggest eyewitness of this case. This whole incident happened in front of her eyes. The great thing is that despite knowing everything, she did not help her friend and ran away from the spot. The way she has claimed that Anjali was drunk, seems like she is also trying to twist the case.

Government secures 298 votes in favour, 230 against; proposal does not pass constitutional threshold

The proposed amendment related to women’s reservation failed to pass in the Lok Sabha on Friday after the government could not secure the required two-thirds majority.

The bill received 298 votes in favour and 230 against, falling short of the constitutional threshold needed for passage. As a constitutional amendment, it required the support of at least two-thirds of members present and voting.

Despite securing a simple majority, the government was unable to gather sufficient support to meet this requirement.

Debate continues over two days

The discussion on the bill extended late into Thursday and continued on Friday, with members from both sides participating in the debate on women’s representation in legislative bodies.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged members to support the proposal, calling for wider consensus on the issue.

Implications of the outcome

The failure of the bill underscores the challenges in securing broad political agreement on constitutional amendments, especially those related to representation and electoral reforms.

The proposal was aimed at advancing women’s representation in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies, an issue that has remained under discussion for several years.

Rahul Gandhi

The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court has allowed a petition seeking legal action in connection with allegations related to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s citizenship status, marking a fresh development in the case.

The petition was filed by a political worker, who had approached the court seeking directions for registration of a case over claims that Gandhi may have held foreign citizenship. The High Court, while hearing the matter, passed directions for further proceedings in accordance with law.

The development comes after a special MP/MLA court in Lucknow had earlier declined to order registration of an FIR, reportedly observing that it lacked jurisdiction in matters concerning citizenship.

Background

The case is linked to allegations that Rahul Gandhi may have held British citizenship. Under Indian law, dual citizenship is not permitted. However, these claims remain part of the petitioner’s submissions and have not been established by any court.

During earlier hearings, the High Court had sought records and considered material presented by the parties involved.

What happens next

With the High Court allowing the plea, the matter is expected to proceed as per due legal process. This may involve examination by the appropriate authority and further judicial review at subsequent stages.

The case carries both legal and political significance given Rahul Gandhi’s role as Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha.

Pawan Khera

Congress leader Pawan Khera suffered another legal setback on Friday after the Supreme Court of India declined to extend protection in a case linked to his remarks about Himanta Biswa Sarma’s wife.

A bench of the apex court refused to interfere with an earlier order that had stayed the transit anticipatory bail granted to Khera by the Telangana High Court. This decision leaves the Congress leader open to possible arrest by Assam Police in connection with the case.

During the hearing, Khera’s counsel sought interim protection, but the court declined the request and advised him to approach the appropriate court in Assam for relief. The bench clarified that the Guwahati High Court should decide any bail plea independently and on its merits.

“Am I a terrorist?” remark during hearing

While seeking protection, Khera’s legal team expressed concern over the urgency of the situation. In court, his counsel remarked, “Am I a terrorist?” highlighting the plea for temporary relief until a fresh bail application could be filed.

The Supreme Court also raised concerns over the submission of incorrect documents during the proceedings, adding another layer to the legal complications faced by the Congress leader.

Case linked to remarks on CM’s wife

The case stems from a press conference held earlier this month, where Khera made allegations regarding the citizenship status and financial assets of the Assam Chief Minister’s wife, Riniki Bhuyan Sharma.

He had claimed that she possessed multiple passports and owned undisclosed overseas properties. These allegations were strongly denied by the Chief Minister’s family, who termed them fabricated and misleading.

Legal battle intensifies

Earlier, the Telangana High Court had granted Khera temporary transit anticipatory bail, allowing him time to seek relief from a competent court in Assam. However, the Supreme Court stayed that order following a challenge by Assam authorities, escalating the legal battle.

With the latest ruling, Khera is now expected to move the Guwahati High Court for anticipatory bail as the case continues to unfold.
