Kochi: The police’s attempt to ‘put in’ the editor of ‘Marunadan Malayali’, Shajan Skaria, has drawn severe criticism from the court. Shajan, who appeared at the Nilambur police station yesterday for questioning as per the order of the High Court, was taken into custody by the Thrikakkara police in another case, but the Ernakulam District Add. Sessions Court granted anticipatory bail in this case as well. After being allowed, there was a situation to be released.
Shajan reached the Nilambur police station yesterday on the instructions of the High Court in a case of trying to incite religious hatred. Meanwhile, Shajan was arrested from Nilambur at 10.25 am while the anticipatory bail plea filed by Shajan Skaria was being considered yesterday morning knowing that he would be arrested in the forgery case. According to the prosecution, the anticipatory bail application is irrelevant. Rejecting this argument, the court immediately granted anticipatory bail. If arrested, he should be released yesterday on condition of a bond of 50,000 rupees and two sureties of equal amount. Sessions Judge P.K. Mohandas ordered. The court severely criticized the police action.
Shajan was taken into custody by the Trikkakara Police on a complaint filed by Radhakrishnan of Delhi to the Chief Minister that he had registered Tiding Digital Publications by forging a document with the Registrar of Companies and obtained a certificate of incorporation. After BJP state vice-president Sobha Surendran and his team came to protest once morest the arrest at Thrikakkara station, the team from Nilambur along with Shajan was brought to Kalamasery police station for questioning. .
Police make fun of court proceedings
The accused appears in good faith that he will be protected by the order of the High Court. Arresting a person so present in another case is tantamount to making a mockery of court proceedings. This is a clear abuse of process of law.
In the morning, while the court was considering the petition, it was announced that the accused had been arrested. The malice of the Inquiry Officer is also evident by seeking more time to delay disposal of the petition. The complaint is that Shajan forged BSNL’s telephone bill of July 6, 2018. No such complaint has been filed by the Registrar of Companies. This is not a serious crime that warrants an immediate arrest. There is no need for custodial interrogation. If we look at the manner in which the accused was taken into custody, it is clear that the investigating officer was in a hurry. Merely because the accused has been arrested does not make the anticipatory bail application irrelevant.
