The Delhi High Court will hear a plea on September 3 challenging the Lieutenant Governor’s order that allows police officials to record evidence virtually from police stations, amid the ongoing strike by lawyers in the capital’s district judiciary.
In a ruling on Wednesday(13th Nov), the Supreme Court emphasized that the Executive cannot replace the Judiciary and the law should not prejudge an accused’s guilt, notably in response to petitions against “bulldozer actions” in which the properties of alleged offenders are demolished by state authorities.
