The Supreme Court quashed criminal proceedings against anaesthetist Dr. Supriya Kumari in a Kerala medical negligence case, holding that an off-duty doctor cannot face criminal liability for a procedural error allegedly committed by a nurse without proof of gross negligence or recklessness.
The Supreme Court resumed hearing Sonam Wangchuk’s plea challenging his detention under the National Security Act, with Kapil Sibal alleging selective and incorrect speech transcripts.
The Bench has now sought the original speech record and ordered the pen drive evidence to be sealed and produced before the Court.
