Law Minister for
expeditious disposal of all cases to ensure speedy justice
Jammu, May 2:
Taking cognizance of the strictures passed against the state government by the
Court for failing to file the objections despite repeated opportunities granted
by the Court to the bail application of accused of alleged kidnapping and
raping of a nine year old girl, Law Minister, Syed Basharat Ahmad Bukhari has
accorded sanction to termination of services of Advocate M.A.Beigh as
Additional Advocate General.
The Court has
given a number of opportunities to the AAG to file objections to the bail
application filed by the accused in a case titled Mohammad Shafi Sheikh Vs
State of JK through SHO, P/S Budgam for offenses under section 376, 363 RPC
bearing FIR No. 166/2017.
On state failing
to file the objections to the bail application, Justice M.K.Hanjura in his
judgment issued on 24th of April, 2018 with the remarks of
lackadaisical, inattentive, incurious and indolent attitude of the state. He
said that a battery of lawyers has been engaged by the state to conduct and
handle the matters in which the state is a party but one gets dismayed to see
that even in cases involving horrifying and serious crimes the approach of the
state is abject, dismal and desolate.
The Minister has
issued strict instructions to the Law officers to ensure that no case against
the state government goes uncontested. He also enjoined upon them to process
the serious and sensitive cases in a total responsible and speedy manner so
that justice is ensured to everyone.
“The case
being very sensitive and the offenses having been committed against the minor
girl child cannot be ignored, asserted the Minister saying that keeping in view
of the totality of circumstances, the services of M.A.Beigh as Additional
Advocate General have been terminated with immediate effect”.
