New Delhi: The Supreme Court today sought response from Congress leader
Sajjan Kumar, accused in 1984 anti-Sikh riots cases, on a plea filed by
the SIT challenging the anticipatory bail granted to him by the Delhi
High Court.
A bench of Justice A K Sikri and Ashok Bhushan said it is high time that these cases are tried at the earliest.
The bench said it was an over 30-year-old case and it took around "200
pages" for the high court to grant anticipatory bail when it could have
been done in just "40-50 pages".
Additional Solicitor General Maninder Singh, appearing for the SIT,
said the investigation started against Kumar only in 2016 and now he has
come armed with a battery of lawyers and dictates his statement to the
investigating officer of the case.
The ASG said that while granting anticipatory bail to him, the high
court had said that everything will be tested in trial of the case but
at the end it granted him the relief saying there was no evidence.
To this, the bench said whether all this was considered at the time of anticipatory bail?
Singh said, "Yes. This is totally contrary to the established procedure of law".
The bench then issued notice.
