Allahabad High Court’s Justice Sameer Jain has recused himself from hearing Samajwadi Party leader Mohammad Azam Khan’s 2016 Yatim Khana eviction case. The earlier stay on the trial court’s final judgment will remain in effect until the next hearing.
The Supreme Court Yesterday (Dec 13) expressed its strong disapproval at a trial court’s failure to frame charges and commence trial in a case of attempt to murder dating back to 2016. A Bench of Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra granted bail to a man in custody since April 2017 in a case registered by Maharashtra Police in December 2016.
