In this context it is quite pertinent to note that In India with money power , right political connections any crime can be done & be scot free . In India Legal system is for Sale , Judicial orders can be manipulated. The conict in a case may be an innocent without recourse to right connections & legal aid. So , one cann!t be "##$ sure whether the death conict has actually committed the crime. %rison sentence can be reersed , if &udgement is found faulty but what if death sentence is carried out on an innocent person ' J()*+ is not god.

In such cases, capital punishment will be unfair & inhuman. It must be made mandatory, in all death penalty cases that polygraph, lie detector tests, etc must be conducted on 2 death conicts 2 , to 0now whether they are innocent or guilty inspite of hostile eidences. -undamentally, the capital punishment has failed as a deterrent.

Judge :atch 8orruption, Immunity, 8ontempt & 9ight to Information The course of &ustice is often pererted by corruption within the &udiciary and indeed within the entire system of administration of &ustice. This is exacerbated by the total lac0 of accountability of the higher &udiciary including the lac0 of any effectie disciplinary mechanism, the self acquired protection from een being inestigated for criminal offences, the irtual immunity from public criticism due to the law of contempt, and finally the immunity from public scrutiny by another &udicially created insulation from the 9ight to Information ,ct. ,nti;poor 4ias The &udicial system is increasingly used by the ruling establishment for pushing through neo liberal policies by which resources such as land, water and public spaces left with the poor and being increasingly appropriated by the rich and the powerful. This elitist and anti poor bias ma0es the &udicial system an instrument for protecting and furthering the interest of the rich and powerful, both Indian and foreign.

It was signed by @M 7%s of 9a&ya Sabha. 6oweer, before it could get the signature of the requisite number of M# 7%s of 9a&ya Sabha, Justice %unchhi was appointed 8hief Justice of India. ,fter this, it became irtually impossible to get the 5otice of 7otion signed by any 7%s. 8onsequently, 5otice of 7otion could not be presented to the Spea0er. The imp lesson of this exercise was that it is ery difficult to get the 7%s sign the impeachment motion unless three conditions are satisfied. -irstly, the charges must be ery seriousN secondly they must be proable by documentary eidence which is annexed to the 5otice of 7otion and finally, the charges must hae been gien substantial publicity in the media. In the absence of all the three conditions been satisfied, 7%s are afraid and reluctant to sign a charge sheet against a sitting &udge. It is normally exceedingly difficult to get documentary eidence to proe charge against sitting &udge, particularly in the absence of a statutory inestigation by an agency haing powers of inestigation. 7oreoer, the bul0 of the main stream media is afraid to publicise charges against the sitting &udge for fear of contempt. In 9amaswami!s case, the aboe three conditions were satisfied. )ocumentary eidence was aailable against 9amaswami because of the report of the ,ccountant *eneral who audited the purchases made by 9amaswami as 8hief Justice of %un&ab and 6aryana 6igh 8ourt. This is why, impeachment of &udges, howeer corrupt they might be, is not a practical remedy in discipling them.

Judge :atch on Justice Jagdish 4halla This is the case where the documentary eidence was aailable to show that the &udge has purchased the property worth crores in few la0hs in the name of his wife from well;0nown criminal who hae illegally grabbed the land. There were inquiry reports of the ,dditional )istrict 7agistrate and Superintendent of %olice which attested to these facts. 6oweer, despite this documentary eidence being brought to the notice of the then 8hief Justice of India, he neither ordered an independent inestigation nor did he allow the 8ommittee on Judicial ,ccountability to get a regular -I9 registered, so that a normal police inestigation could hae ta0en place. This was despite the fact that under the in;house procedure, supposedly adopted by the Supreme 8ourt of India in "DDD for inestigating charges against the &udges, at least an in;house committee of &udges could hae formed to inestigate the charges against Justice 4halla. 6oweer instead of doing that, the then 8hief Justice =.>. Sabbarwal recommended Justice 4halla to be the 8hief Justice of >erala 6igh 8ourt. 6is appointment as 8hief Justice was stopped only because of the complaint made by the 8ommittee on Judicial ,ccountability to the %resident of India, who sent the matter bac0 to reconsideration to the Supreme 8ourt collegium, which thereafter could not reiterate its recommendation because of the opposition of one of the &udges of the collegium, Justice 4.5.,ggarwal. 6oweer, thereafter Justice 4halla has been transferred as a &udge of 8hattisgarh 6igh 8ourt where he has been appointed as acting 8hief Justice by the notification of Law 7inistry. This was despite of the ob&ection of the 8ommittee on Judicial ,ccountability, that a &udge, who was not found suitable as 8hief Justice of >erala, cannot be appointed as ,cting 8hief Justice of another 6igh 8ourt. The case of Justice 4halla demonstrates the hollowness of the so;called in;house procedure supposedly adopted by the Supreme 8ourt for inestigating charges against &udges. It also demonstrates the pernicious impact of the ?eraswami &udgement which preents any police inestigation against a &udge without the prior permission of the 8hief Justice of India. The brotherhood among the &udges and the fear among &udges that any criminal inestigation against the sitting &udge would tarnish the image of Indian Judiciary has let to a situation whereby not a single sitting &udge has been sub&ected to criminal inestigation in the "C years since the ?eeraswamy &udgement.

Judge :atch on Justice =.>.Sabharwal -ormer 8JI, Justice =.>.Sabharwal set in motion the process of sealing of properties in designated residential areas of )elhi which were being used for commercial purposes. This sealing went on relentlessly under the continuous superision of 8hief Justice Sabharwal!s bench, monitored and directed by a 8ourt appointed monitoring committee. :hen the goernment came up with a new master plan of )elhi @#@" which allowed mixed use and commercial actiity in many of the areas which were designated as residential, Justice Sabharwal orders on the sealing continued. Some of the facts which were not publicly 0nown was that his two sons, 8hetan and 5itin had entered into partnerships with big 7all and 8ommercial complex deelopers and had become big 8ommercial complex deelopers themseles during that time. It was clear that these orders were giing direct benefit to his sons! business. 6is orders are against the principles of natural &ustice, which say that no &udge can hear a case in which he is personally interested. There was a serious conflict of interest in this case which renders his orders a nullity. It is in fact arguable that his dealing with this case in such circumstances inoles an offence under the %reention of 8orruption ,ct. ,t the same time, it was also found that seeral plots were allotted to the 8ompanies or relaties of Justice Sabharwal and which needs to be inestigated to see if undue faour was shown to them and if so whether there was any quid pro quo in terms of &udicial orders.

Judge :atch on Justice %. ). )ina0aran -The Supreme 8ourt collegium headed by 8hief Justice > * 4ala0rishnan and including Justice S.6. >apadia, Justice Tarun 8hatter&ee and Justice 9.?. 9aeendran had recommended in ,ugust @##D, Justice #.6. 6inakaran, the 8hief Justice of >arnata0a 6igh 8ourt, for eleation to the Supreme 8ourt. The recommendations came along with the names of four other Judges for eleation to the ,pex court namely, Justice ,> %atnaya0 O8hief Justice of 7adhya %radesh 6igh 8ourtP, Justice Tirath Singh Tha0ur, O8hief Justice of %un&ab and 6aryana 6igh 8ourtP, Justice SS 5i&&ar O8hief Justice of 8alcutta 6igh 8ourtP and Justice >S 9adha0rishna O 8hief Justice of *u&arat 6igh 8ourtP. :hile the dec0s were cleared for the eleation of the latter four Judges, iimmediately after the news of Justice )ina0aran!s proposed appointment became 0nown, a group of highly respected and responsible lawyers from 8hennai called the -orum for Judicial ,ccountability sent a series of representations to the 8ollegium and the goernment detailing seeral ery damaging allegations against him. These included, acquiring more than 1M# acres of agricultural land and encroaching on another more than hundred acres of public landN acquiring properties benami and far beyond his 0nown sources of incomeN hearing and deciding cases of his friends etc. ,ll the allegations were bac0ed by unimpeachable documentary eidence. Though the 8hief Justice of India, continued to bac0 him, he ordered an inquiry into the allegation regarding his agricultural land by the )istrict 7agistrate, who confirmed the allegations including his encroachment of public land. Thereafter Justice )ina0aran tried to destroy eidence and threatened the reenue officials who went to stop this destruction of eidence. ,ll this came to be widely reported in the media. ,n embarrassed %7/ forced a reluctant Law 7inister 7oily to return the recommendation to the collegium for reconsideration. The collegium did not withdraw the recommendation, but merely put it on hold. 5o Hin house inquiryJ was ordered either. 7eanwhile people questioned how )ina0aran could continue as 8hief Justice of >arnata0a in the light of such serious offences that he had committed. There was also the demand that -I9s should be registered and the offences that he had committed be inestigated. The 8hief Justice of India howeer did not gie permission for registering any -I9 against Justice )ina0aran. This left no option but to initiate impeachment proceedings against him. The -orum for Judicial ,ccountability prepared the impeachment motion which was sent to all the political parties by a campaign for signatures. +entually CM 7%s of the 9a&ya Sabha, belonging to many political parties except the 8ongress party signed the impeachment motion and presented it to the ?ice %resident. The motion was soon admitted by the ?ice %resident forcing Justice )ina0aran to stop discharging &udicial functions. The procedure laid down by the Judges Inquiry ,ct for proceeding with an impeachment motion is that the ?ice %resident appoints an enquiry committee consisting of a sitting &udge of the Supreme 8ourt, a 8hief Justice of a 6igh 8ourt and a &urist to enquire into the charges against him. /nly if the enquiry committee finds him guilty does the matter proceed further for a oting in the two houses of %arliament. The motion for his remoal has to be then passed by a two third ma&ority in each house. /nly then can he be remoed. Though there is no requirement under the Judges Inquiry ,ct for the ?ice %resident to consult the 8hief Justice in the choice of members of the enquiry committee, he consulted the 8hief Justice, who recommended two &udges of the Supreme 8ourt and two 8hief Justices of the 6igh 8ourt. 4ased on the 8hief Justice!s adice, the ?ice %resident has appointed an inquiry committee comprising of Justice ?.S.

The imp lesson of this exercise was that it is ery difficult to get the 7%s sign the impeachment motion unless three conditions are satisfied. -irstly, the charges must be ery seriousN secondly they must be proable by documentary eidence which is annexed to the 5otice of 7otion and finally, the charges must hae been gien substantial publicity in the media. In the absence of all the three conditions been satisfied, 7%s are afraid and reluctant to sign a charge sheet against a sitting &udge. It is normally exceedingly difficult to get documentary eidence to proe charge against sitting &udge, particularly in the absence of a statutory inestigation by an agency haing powers of inestigation. 7oreoer, the bul0 of the main stream media is afraid to publicise charges against the sitting &udge for fear of contempt. In 9amaswami!s case, the aboe three conditions were satisfied. )ocumentary eidence was aailable against 9amaswami because of the report of the ,ccountant *eneral who audited the purchases made by 9amaswami as 8hief Justice of %un&ab and 6aryana 6igh 8ourt.

Judicial 9eforms The current &udicial system needs to be cleared of procedural complexities and hurdles to ma0e it accessible for the common citi.ens.

They are inside the &ails for months and years, as they cannot afford a lawyer.

There were arious laws but with the interention of &udiciary, the labour law was moing in a progressie direction. The issues concerning the labour matters such as wage, minimum wage, fair wage, employment security, social security, etc. were initiated, right from the +xpress 5ewspaper!s case.Imore Drban #oor /ne broad category of urban poor is the slum dwellers liing in unorgani.ed housing sector, haing occupation of street endors, ric0shaw pullers, etc. This is the section, which has suffered the maximum onslaught of &udicial decision in the recent past. Imore %ural #oor This debate is quite crucial, which is reminiscent of what happened with &udiciary during the period when India was trying to abolish Samindari system and introduce land reforms. :hile reflecting on the &udiciary and its impact on the rural poor, the most popular analysis is the class analysis but one should not confine to it alone, one should also consider caste analysis. :e must also remember the indigenous people. Imore #ublic Interest ;itigation It is important to discuss about the reasons for deeloping a tool li0e %ublic Interest Litigation and how it has transformed recently. :hile critici.ing &udiciary one must not forget about the executie inactions of last ten years and the recent laws passed by the legislature. It is necessary to substantiate by two examples, one is aquaculture case which permitted the multinational corporations to hae their aquaculture actiities at the cost of the traditional fishermen.

Nothing but the truth By Indira Jaising A midst the rising din of the demand for death penalty for rapists comes the news that three judges of the Karnataka High Court have been involved in what has come to be described as a 'sex scandal' on the outskirts of Mysore at a place called oost esorts! "ur attention is now directed to those who dispense justice rather than those who knock at the doors of justice! #n both cases$ we are talking about the use and abuse of women % those who are victims of sexual abuse$ and those who are used as sexual objects$ willingly or unwillingly! After the reports in local newspapers that three high court judges were found with women at a resort$ there was the usual crop of denials! Although the Mysore police were called in to settle a brawl$ on being told that the persons in &uestion were judges they said that they heard no evil and saw no evil! And everyone thought the matter ended there! Attempts to get the names of the judges or of the women in &uestion drew a blank! 'he bar association also drew a blank as most people said$ ()on't &uote me* but*( "n +ovember ,-$ the .angalore edition of 'he 'imes of #ndia published a front/page story giving the names and photographs of the three judges and confirming that the #ntelligence .ureau had done an investigation and come to the conclusion that the incident had indeed occurred! 'here were still no details of the incident$ though it was stated that the report has been given to the chief justice of #ndia! 'here were reports on the same day that the Karnataka High Court chief justice had sought the transfer of the three judges to 0atna$ 1ammu and Kashmir and 2uwahati! Apparently$ the chief justice has agreed to this re&uest and the transfer orders have been issued! 'hen came the news that the chief justice of #ndia has set up a committee of in&uiry under the 'in/house' procedure consisting of the chief justice of the Andhra 0radesh High Court$ the chief justice of the Madras High Court and the chief justice of the 0atna High Court! 'here were still no details in the press about the actual incident and the entire episode continued to be referred to as a 'sex scandal'! 3hat is interesting about these reports is not what they reveal$ but what they conceal! #t is a conspiracy of silence! #f the information is now available to the chief justice of #ndia$ why is it not being made public4 )o we$ the public$ not have the right to information4 #ronically$ the morning newspapers brought the news that the 5reedom of #nformation Act has been passed! 3hat are the legitimate limits of the right to freedom of information and the re&uirement of keeping information a secret4 'his episode would make an interesting case study! 3hat exactly is at stake here4 'here is much that should concern the nation about the incident! 'his is not a case about the private morality of the judges$ be that as it may$ but about the abuse of office that they hold! 3hat has not been made known is that the three women in &uestion are women lawyers practising in their courts! 3hat is at stake here is the pollution of the stream of justice at its very source! 'here must be countless cases in which these women appeared before these very judges day in and day out of their routine practice! Can one honestly say that in such a situation justice is being done (without fear or favour(4 1udges swear on oath of allegiance to (bear true faith( to the Constitution and do justice (without fear or favour(! How well have these judges honoured this oath4 3hat is at stake here is the cynical use of women as sexual commodities! 'he usual justifications have already begun making the rounds! #f the women have not complained$ what objection can anyone else have$ it is asked! 3hat is lost sight of is the fact that the judges are in a position of dominance vis/6/vis the women$ in a position to do favours that pertain to their office! 3hat is at stake here is the cynical use of public office$ the seat of justice$ for personal petty gain! #t is irrelevant whether the women consented or not! 'he usual blame game will now begin % blaming the victim rather than the perpetrator7 the usual loose talk about the character of the woman in &uestion7 the usual attempt to cover up by diverting attention from the actual incident to the motives of those who brought the incident to light! 3hat is at stake here is the perception of women as sexual commodities by those who are responsible for sitting in judgment over cases brought for and on behalf of women! 'he issues at stake here concern one half of #ndians! 3ith what faith can #ndian women approach the courts demanding the right to e&uality$ the right to be free from sexual harassment or rape and the right to live with dignity$ if the persecution of judges who sit in judgment over them is non/negotiable4 #n the circumstances$ the suggested solution is worse than the offence % to transfer them to 0atna$ 2uwahati and 1ammu and Kashmir! 3hy these particular cities4 Are they not an integral part of the country$ or are they mere islands within the country that are considered 'punishment postings' where people are sent a la 'crossing Kala 0ani' of the old days4 'o the credit of the 2uwahati .ar Association$ it protested against the proposed transfer! 'he only decent thing to do is for the chief justice of #ndia to disclose full details of the incident so that rumour/mongering comes to an end! 'his would be in the best interest of the judiciary itself! As things stand$ the rumours are making the rounds that there were more than three judges involved$ that the women were professional call girls$ many of which are baseless! 3e$ the people$ have the right to know! 'he conspiracy of silence must be broken! 'he judges in &uestion must neither be assigned any judicial functions pending an in&uiry nor be transferred to sit in judgment over others!

'here is little point in showing sympathy to women in judgments and in seminar rooms$ or in recommending the death penalty for rape if we cannot deal with the men who dispense justice! 'here are contempt of court petitions pending in the Karnataka High Court against some of the publications for disclosing details of the incident! Civil society and women's organisations must demand that justice is now done when it comes to the judges themselves! 'he law of contempt can offer no solution to the crisis of credibility in the judiciary that this incident has thrown up! "ne positive aspect of the incident is that it is only after the chief justice of the high court issued a public notice inviting information that he received 8- representations$ which led to the discovery of the truth! 9et the truth now be made public!

'he fact that these men L fellow police officers$ bureaucrats$ politicians$ lawyers$ judges$ school administrators L were willing to bend the system to accommodate a man accused of molesting a minor speaks volumes for the moral impoverishment of our establishment and country! )ecent societies shun those involved in sexual offences against children! Hven criminals jailed for Mordinary' crimes like murder treat those serving time for molesting children as beyond the pale! .ut in #ndia$ men like athore have their uses for their masters$ so the system circles its wagons and protects them! 'he C.#'s appeal may lead to the enhancement of athore's sentence and perhaps even the slapping of abetment to suicide charges$ since his young victim killed herself to put an end to the criminal intimidation her family was being subjected to by athore and his men! .ut the systemic rot which the case has exposed will not be remedied unless sustained public pressure is put on 0rime Minister Manmohan =ingh and :nion Home Minister 0! Chidambaram$ two men who have it in their power to push for simple remedies in the way the #ndian law enforcement and justice delivery system works! 5irst$ abolish the need for official$ i!e! political sanction to prosecute bureaucrats$ policemen and security forces personnel when they are accused of committing crimes! 'he original intent behind this built/in stay/out/of/jail card was to protect state functionaries from acts done in the course of discharging their duties in good faith! =omewhere along the line$ this has come to mean protecting our custodians of law and order when they murder innocent civilians Beg! the infamous 0anchalthan case in Kashmir where the trial of army men indicted by the C.# for murdering five villagers in 8--- still cannot take place because the Central government will not grant permissionC$ or assault or molest women and children! +o civilised$ democratic society grants such impunity! #t is disgusting to see former officials and bureaucrats from Haryana saying how they had wanted athore prosecuted but were prevented from doing so because of pressure! =uch officials should either be made formally to testify in a criminal case against the politicians who so pressured them or they should themselves be hauled up for perverting the course of justice! =econd$ stop talking about how making the police and army answerable to the law will somehow demoralise their morale! )oes anybody care about the morale of ordinary citiNens any more4 "r the morale of upright police and army officers$ who do not think it is right for their colleagues to be able to get away with criminal acts4 'hird$ bring an end to the cosy relationship between the police and politicians! athore was protected by four chief ministers of Haryana! He served them and they served him by ensuring his unfettered rise! #t is absurd that the #ndian 0olice is still governed by a colonial/era Act dating back to ?G>?! A number of commissions have made recommendations for reforming the police over the years7 but no government or political party wants to give up its ability to use and misuse the police for their own benefit 5ourth$ ensure that police officers who abuse their authority and engage in mala fide prosecutions are dismissed from service and sentenced to jail for a long period of time! Mr! Chidambaram should use the considerable resources at his command to find out who were the policemen involved in filing ?? bogus cases against the teenaged brother of the young girl athore molested! He should then make sure criminal proceedings are initiated against all of them! 'he message must go out to every policeman in the country; #f you abuse the law at the behest of a superior$ you will suffer legal conse&uences! 5ifth$ ensure that criminal charges against law enforcement personnel are fast/tracked as a matter of routine so that a powerful defendant is not able to use his position to delay proceedings the way athore did for years on end! 'he destruction or disappearance of material evidence in such cases must be treated as a grave offence with strict criminal liability imposed on the individual responsible for breaking the chain of custody! =ixth$ empower the +ational Human ights Commission with teeth so that police departments and state governments cannot brush aside their orders as happened in the athore case! 'his would also re&uire appointing to the +HC women and men who have a proven record of defending human rights in their professional life$ something that is done today only in the breach! 'he attitude of the Manmohan =ingh government to this commission and others like the +ational Commission for 3omen B+C3C and +ational Commission for Minorities is shocking!

Just because they are 'amils from yarlpanamF did the in&estigators linked them with ;''A and closed the case @ 332 hat is the strong e&idence that links ;''A and its head #rabhakaran to %a7i&Ks assasination case. @ 3=2 hat is the proof that Sri&arasan spoke to #rabhakaran thro a radio. hy is this not an assumption @ 3/2 It is &ery much possible that politicians within the congress could ha&e considered %a7i& >andhi is blocking their de&elopment within the party and could ha&e hired some group to assasinate %a7i&. 'his moti&ation cannot be denied. 352 Various international business people specifically those selling weapons would ha&e been in contact with %a7i& as a prime minister. 'hey could ha&e hired the assasinators to do this murder. 6id in&estigators probed this @ 3.2 hat if Sri ;anka did thisF thinking India might send the Indian peace keeping force again to their country and didnt like a strong leader emerging from India @ 382 (I) always had interest in erradicating leaders in all third world countries. 6id the same kind of interest got applied on %a7i& @ 3<2 %a7i& >andhi is the only leader who pre&ents the other prominant political party in India 1J# to get into power.
