Imapact Of Loya Murder Case


Imapact Of Loya Murder Case


The Supreme Court  today said it will continue to hear the plea in the judge Loya death case on February 5, Monday, after arguments remained inconclusive, reported news agency ANI.The SC had on January 22 transferred to itself two cases from the Bombay high court (HC) about the alleged suspicious death of CBI judge BH Loya.The SC then also asked other HCs not to entertain any PILs on the issue relating to Loya's death and posted the matter for hearing on February 2.As the Maharashtra government presented documents related to the Judge Loya death case, the SC said the issues raised in the current petitions are serious and "we must look into all documents with utmost seriousness." The apex court then asked all parties to file any and all documents relating to judge Loya's death.A PIL seeking a probe into the judge's death was filed before the Bombay HC on January 8 by the Bombay Lawyers' Association (BLA).
On January 22, the BLA's counsel, Dushyant Dave, said the documents produced by Maharashtra were incomplete. In fact, he said he had documents obtained under RTI to show there were indeed suspicious circumstances attached to judge Loya's death.At the time of his death, on December 1, 2014, Loya was hearing the case of the alleged fake encounter killing of gangster Sohrabuddin Sheikh in which BJP chief Amit Shah was an accused party along with several others. Shah was subsequently discharged from the case by the judge who took over the case after judge Loya's death.The two petitions which are pending in the apex court have been filed by Congress leader Tehseen Poonawalla and Maharashtra-based journalist BS Lone. The order followed high-octane arguments. A packed court room watched in silence as Maharashtra government's counsel Harish Salve presented documents, including statements of four district judges, in support of the state's stand that Loya suffered a heart attack and died a natural death. Dave attacked Salve and said the latter had violated professional ethics by appearing for the Maharashtra government despite having represented BJP chief Amit Shah.Shah was one of the accused in the case concerning the "fake" encounter of inter-state gangster Sohrabuddin Sheikh which was being tried by Loya at the time of his death. Shah was later discharged from the case.
The CJI-led bench said, "We are looking at the circumstances in which Loya died. Let it not be deflected by personal allegations. Several newspaper articles have raised a serious issue about Loya's death. We would like to look at all documents, both the ones produced by the state and those obtained through RTI by petitioners. We must know all facts. Let us look at these documents objectively and not get deflected by allegations." It posted the hearing on all PILs, including the transferred ones, on February 2.Salve said two district judges had accompanied Loya for a wedding reception in Nagpur and they stayed together in a guesthouse where, in the early hours of December 1, 2014, Loya suffered a massive heart attack. "Loya was taken by the two district judges in a car to a hospital and then to another. These two judges were later joined by another two district judges.
