If justice arrives after the expiry date of grief | Lucknow News

On March 11th, forty -four years after the infamous Dehuli CarnageThe chairman of the Special Court Dacity, Manipuri, Indira Singh, condemned three Brigands – Ramsevak, Kapan Singh and Rampal.
Twenty -four Dalits, including women and two toddlers, were shot down by a gang of Dacacits in this little Hamlet in Firozabad, which led to a raging political whirlpool in Up.
However, those who expected theater in the courtroom on this day were very disappointed. The two defendants (already dead) and their relatives remained passive, while nobody from the victims' family took part in the process.
“Right of four are a long time. Most of their family members had fled the village after the massacre and the remaining relatives are too indifferent or untouched,” said Rohit Shuckla.
“The last day, March 18, is probably no different,” says defender Manoj Dubey.
Confirmation of the dead still seem to be a long way, since both customers “Kapan Singh and Rampal prepare for an appeal”.
According to the statistics of the national judicial data Grid (NJDG), 1,541 cases have been in various high dishes and 1,390 cases in the subordinate judiciary for fifty years or more. With 572 cases, the list of this half century-old club is above.
The waiting could be worrying. Ask Krishhnendra Kaur Deep, a former minister and MP in Rajasthan. After a strenuous 35 -year legal dispute, a special court in Mathura condemned 12 police officers because he had shot her father Raja Man Singh.
As a siblings of the last ruler of Bharatpur, Sawai Brajendra Singh and seven -time independent MLA, Singh had been torn his jeep into a helicopter who was waiting to transport former Prime Minister Shiv Charan Mathur in February 1985. Mathur announced two days after the encounter, but with the accused who immediately sent it to the High Court, it was too early that the descendants are happy.
President Droupadi Murmu braided the national conference of the judicial district talks and the lengthy judicial dispensation in red six months ago. “If a generation does not do justice to, especially with hideous crimes, the simple man sees it as a sign of judicial insensitivity. How long should it take … 32 years, 12 years, 20, 10 years,” she asked.
No wonder that the judgment in the Behmai massacre, which Phoolan Devi gave the Sobriquet of the Bandite Queen and catapulted her into the position of a member of a member, did not give up the relatives of 20 Thakur on February 14, 1981.
Grief has an expiry date. Phoolan died in the meantime of 43 years as well as her 17 accomplices. The only affected person was Shyam Babu Kewat L, the survivor who was convicted of lifelong term by the court.
The former top judge Dy Chandrachud had held precisely the responsible arguments, whereby Richter had granted long vacation to the reasons that were responsible for the late progress of the legal procedure.
While the problem for legal luminaires is a cause for concern, this national deficit of 5 million cases fits perfectly perpetrators like gangster politicians Mukhtar Ansari, who is now dead. The first FIR was submitted against Ansari in 1978 and it was convicted for the first time 44 years later in 2022.
