Justice Mahabir Singh Sindhu, a sitting judge of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, passed away at Medanta Hospital, Gurugram at 59. Born in Haryana, he was a first-generation lawyer who rose from a farming family background through dedicated legal practice and service.
The Supreme Court ruled that the word “peremptorily” has no special importance in the Nithari killings case. It stressed that court decisions should be based on meaning, not just words. The judgment highlights the need for clear legal language. This comes as the case continues to be closely watched.
Today, On 25th March, The Supreme Court is set to hear petitions on April 3 challenging the acquittal of Surendra Koli in the infamous Nithari killings case. Koli was previously convicted for multiple brutal murders in Noida’s Nithari village, but a recent ruling overturned his conviction. The pleas seek a review of this decision, arguing against his release. The case, which shocked the nation, is once again under judicial scrutiny.
