Reply from the Chief Justice of Delhi High Court
D.O. No. 38/CJS/04
B. C. Patel 19 May 2004
Chief Justice
With reference to your demi-official letter No. 4/9/2003-PRP&P dated 20th February, 2004, I
would like to inform you that after the receipt of your aforesaid letter alongwith the list, I called
for the reports from the learned Public Prosecutor and after hearing the learned Public Prosecutor,
myself sitting in a Division Bench with Justice Badar Durrez Ahmed, passed the orders, substance
whereof is enclosed herewith.
We were constrained to call for the report in one of the matters where the learned Additional
Sessions Judge remained a silent spectator. Except adjournments nothing had been done.
I am sending his reports for your kind perusal. In the said matter, the Bench issued notice
for compensation.
In view of the aforesaid letter, many poor people got justice. I visited Tihar Jail alongwith
M/s D.K. Jain, A.K. Sikri and Badar Durrez Ahmad, JJ. Thereafter we also passed orders
releasing sick and infirm accused as also aged male and female accused on bail after hearing
the learned Public Prosecutor who made her submissions after calling the report and evidence
in some of the cases.
With warm regards.
Hon’ble Justice Dr. A. S. Anand
Chairperson
National Human Rights Commission,
Sardar Patel Bhawan, Parliament Street,
New Delhi - 110001
Yours sincerely
Sd/
