  15. While A Journalist Spends Time in Jail For Doing His Duty, An Old, Ailing Man Even Unable To Even Sip Water & Dies Behind Bars, What happened to Article 21? Justice Rekha Sharma

    During the seminar hosted today by Campaign for Judicial Accountability and Reforms (CJAR) at ISIL, Delhi, former Delhi High Court Judge Rekha Sharma lamented that the Supreme Court has lost its credibility in the eyes of the public. She further expressed concerns that while powerful people are getting bail "on experimental basis", commoners are "withering away unwept, unheard and unsung".

  18. Wish for 2024: Freedom without fear

    There is a sense that the judiciary will not intercede on behalf of those arrayed against the powers that be; liberty can be truly secured only if a party isn’t brought to power with an overwhelming majority, writes Ajaz Ashraf.

  19. 2023: The Year Imprisoned Political Activist Umar Khalid Was Not Heard By The Supreme Court

    Umar Khalid's bail petition has been bouncing between different judges of the country’s highest court with no hearing of arguments despite the case being listed 10 times over seven months. In addition to delaying tactics by the State, adjournments and scheduling conflicts, violation of the rules on how cases are assigned to judges further delay the proceedings. Betwa Sharma writes.

  22. 1000 Days Without Trial Or Bail For Umar Khalid, Denied Bail Despite False Allegations, Fabrications & Inconsistencies

    PhD student Umar Khalid completes 1,000 days in jail without a trial, Article 14 revisited the fabrications, inconsistencies and conjectures that vitiate the Delhi riots conspiracy case but are still not enough for him to get bail because judges, as experts point out, interpret draconian laws in unyielding fashion. Police witnesses against the 35-year-old have been shown as unreliable, unproven allegations have been dropped, and the police have used partial truths and communally tainted arguments in his prosecution.
