Bombay High Court hearing the bail application of Gautam Navlakha in Bhima Koregaon case.

Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal @KapilSibal appearing.

Sibal narrating the case background since August 2018.

 Sibal mentions that the Delhi High Court had initially stayed the transit remand of Gautam Navlakha from Delhi to Mumbai and he continued to be house arrest.

#GautamNavlakha
#BhimaKoregaon
Sibal : On October 1, 2018, the Delhi High Court quashed the arrest and remand of Navlakha. By that time, he had spend 34 days in custody under house arrest.

https://t.co/vHIFzVek65
Sibal : On April 14 this year, Navlakha surrendered in Delhi before NIA after his bail applications were dismissed by Bombay High Court and the Supreme Court.

@KapilSibal

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
Sibal : He has cumulatively spend 93 days in custody. The application for extension of time was filed on June 29, which is the 110th day.
#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
Sibal : The only question to be considered is whether the 34 days which Navlakha spend in custody in 2018 before his remand was quashed should be counted or not.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
Sibal : The argument of the other side is that it was no custody. Arrest and custody are different. He was under custody even when he was under house arrest. His freedom and movement were restricted under house arrest.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
Sibal : If the 34 days are counted, the NIAs application is beyond 90 days and their application is not maintainable. So Navlakha is entitled to default bail.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
Sibal refers to the recent judgment of Supreme Court in "M Ravindran v Director of Revenue Intelligence".

ASG SV Raju now making submissions on behalf of the NIA @NIA_India

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
ASG SV Raju says there was no "custody" when Navlakha was arrested in Delhi in 2018. There was only arrest and no 'custody'.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
ASG SV Raju : Delhi High Court held on October 1, 2018 that the arrest was illegal and non-est and quashed the consequential remand order.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
ASG SV Raju : In view of the Delhi High Court judgment, there is no arrest or remand.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
ASG SV Raju : The petitioner had filed a writ petition in High Court to quash the FIR which was dismissed. The SLP against it was not entertained.
#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
ASG SV Raju : He later applied for anticipatory bail. That is because the earlier arrest was quashed as illegal.
#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
ASG SV Raju : The Supreme Court had given him an option- either file regular bail or anticipatory bail. He(Navlakha) filed anticipatory bail. This means, according to him, there was no arrest before. Otherwise he would have filed regular bail.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt
ASG SV Raju : Right till the Supreme Court, his anticipatory bail applications were rejected. He was arrested on April 14 and remanded on April 15. His actual arrest is not 28 August, 2018 but April 15, 2020. Because earlier arrest was held to be "non-est" in the eye of law.
ASG SV Raju : Look from other angle. If he was arrested on August 28, 2018, he should have been enlarged on bail. He was a free man till April 2020. He was neither on bail nor on custody.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
Justice Shinde says the bench will reserve orders.

ASG SV Raju says he wants to cite some more judgments and says he is ready to come back in the evening.
#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
Justice Shinde asks Sibal : What do you say?

Sibal : The matter has to finish today. Taking it at 5 PM may not be appropriate. We can file written submissions.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
Sibal : Illegal arrest does not make the custody non existent - that is the only point. I can file written submissions.

ASG : I want to make submissions.

Sibal : This is not fair.

ASG : I am only saying 4.30 today.

J Shinde : This is a part-heard matter.
ASG : I won't take much time. I just want to cite few judgments.

Justice Shinde : Okay we will keep it at 4.30. But we can't assure if it will be taken.

Sibal : If it is not taken up at 4.30, we will file written submissions. This can't go to January.

#BhimaKoregaon
Justice Shinde says the case will be taken at 4.30.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
The bench takes up the case of Gautam Navlakha seeking default bail.

ASG SV Raju makes submissions. The issue is short - whether the period of 90 days is to be computed from Aug 28, 2018 or April 15, 2020, he says.

#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
Justice Shinde : We are aware of the issue and background. We kept the case at evening because you said you wanted to cite some judgments.
#BhimaKoregaon #BombayHighCourt #GautamNavlakha
ASG Raju refers to judgment 'Chaganti Satyanarayan & Ors vs State Of Andhra Pradesh(1986)' to cite that 'the initial period of custody of an arrested person till he is produced before a Magistrate is neither referable to nor in pursuance of an order of remand passed"
Period of 90 days has to be calculated only from the date of remand and not from the date of arrest - ASG Raju submits based on the above judgment.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
Date of production before the Magistrate is relevant for the computation of 90 days and not the date of arrest : ASG SV Raju.
#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
When Navlakha was under house arrest, he was not produced before the Magistrate. There was no remand order. That period has to be excluded. If that is included, it will lead to anomalous results : ASG SV Raju.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
ASG SV Raju : A person who is under arrest cannot file anticipatory bail application. He has filed such applications.

Justice Shinde : You argued this point in morning. We have noted that.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
ASG SV Raju : Section 167 CrPC will not apply if the arrest is illegal. Delhi HC held that arrest of Navlakha in 2018 was illegal. So 167 is not applicable. 167 stipulates legal arrest and custody.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
ASG SV Raju : After making anticipatory bail application, he is estopped...

Justice Shinde interrupts : Mr. Raju, you made this point about anticipatory bail just 3 minutes back.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
ASG SV Raju : There cannot be a gap in the custody period. It is unheard of. Period from 01.10.2018 to 14.04.2020 is not included in his computation of custody period.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
Nitya Ramakrishnan making reply to ASG Raju's submissions.

'Chaganti judgment' states the period will be computed from date of production. Navlakha was in custody from Aug 28 based on transit remand order.
#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
Nitya : When an arrest is quashed on technical grounds, and the person is re-arrested on the same offence, the initial period of custody will also be counted. The fact that he spent time in custody cannot be washed away.
Nitya : It is not the nature of custody but the factum of custody which is relevant for computing the time.

#GautamNavlakha #BombayHighCourt
The bench concludes arguments and reserves judgment. Parties directed to submit written submissions by December 23.

LibGen is unrepresented before the court today as well.

#SupremeCourt is hearing a Public Interest Litigation seeking directions by Top Court, to provide food and healthcare facilities to children and lactating mothers, because the entire Anganwadi system has shut due to the lockdown.

On November 28, the Top Court had directed the Centre & States to file affidavits with regard to implementation of guidelines issued on operation of Anganwadi in the context of COVID-19.

Senior Advocate Colin Gonsalves says he has prepared a chart wrt to the laxity of the Union with regard to the Aanganwadi system.

The Central Govt's survey on what states had done points to the fact that states had not reopened anganwadi systems in light of the notification of the Govt dated November 11, says Gonsalves.

The system is totally at a standstill, says Gonsalves.

The NHRC study and recommendation states that he Anganwadi's must immediately restart, says Gonsalves

Zojuist procesverbaal zittingen in deze verkrachtingszaak gekregen. Zeg, @HofDenBosch, jullie LIEGEN echt alles bij elkaar in deze zaak en hebben ook doelbewust uit stukken gelaten dat ik de Nederlandse overheid verantwoordelijk hield voor het ontstaan van deze tweede zaak! 1/ https://t.co/M5KfflDkFJ


Wat ik onder anderen gezegd heb ter zitting?

"Deze tweede zaak kon ALLEEN gebeuren omdat in de eerste zaak geweigerd werd getuigen te horen. Vervolgens is deze getuige mij gaan bedreigen en chanteren. Meerdere politiemeldingen, politie deed NIETS" 2/

@HofDenBosch


"Uiteindelijk kon door het FALEN van de Nederlandse overheid deze getuige mij van mijn vrijheid beroven en heeft hij mij verkracht"

Dat laten jullie natuurlijk weer uit het procesverbaal @HofDenBosch!

Er is ook met geen woord gerept over een 'klacht over politieoptreden' betreffende deze tweede zaak, tijdens de zitting! De AG haalde de verkrachtingszaak uit het niets aan, niet een klacht over politieoptreden betreffende de tweede zaak!


Er was op dat moment nog niet eens aangifte gedaan in de tweede zaak, maar om de een of andere reden wist de AG al dat ik een intake gesprek had gehad! Ik heb de @politie gesproken (opgenomen gesprek), die begrepen OOK niet hoe de AG dat kon weten!

Senior Advocate Ravindra Srivastava is making rejoinder submissions.
He says that no authority seems to be looking into the grievances of the borrowers.

Srivastava : Govt and RBI have come up with measures - for small borrowers (for loans up to 2 crores) on which I made submissions regarding discrimination.

They have shown nothing on record to prove why this was done, Srivastava says

Srivastava says that the intervention application of the IBA and the SBI circulars have been signed by the Deputy Managing Director but nowhere it has been stipulated to be a Board Approved policy.

@LauraJedeed for the record nick lee @econbrkfst started bullying when a close friend was diagnosed with coronavirus. in respect of the tragic circumstances, i asked to be left alone. instead, econbrkfst bullied me mercilessly. my friend has died.

i don't think its reasonable to bully people, endanger them, violate their privacy, ridicule them, etc, as they process the death of their friends. if you knew the circumstances---which i tried to keep private---you would know why i feel injured by econbrkfst's harassment of me.

Wracając do sedna dzisiejszego zamieszania z artykułem autosportu / motorsportu. Kubica mówi w nim, że podejmie swoją decyzję w ciągu kilku dni. Rozważa opcję z Williamsem lub posadę kierowcy symulatora w Ferrari. Więc za kilka dni dowiemy się co go czeka za rok. #F1PL

Autosport / motorsport zmienił nagłówek swoje tekstu, bo pierwotnie sugerował on że Kubica jest numerem jeden na liście Williamsa na tytuł mówiący tylko tym, że nadal jest na liście kandydatów. Zrobili to po interwencji zespołu. Same wypowiedzi Kubicy z wywiadu się nie zmieniły.

Trudno powiedzieć czy autor się pośpieszył i wyciągnął inne wnioski niż powinien, a może wie coś więcej, ale nie mógł tego otwarcie napisać. Słowa Kubicy brzmią jednak jednoznacznie: decyzję podejmie w ciągu kilku dni.

Bhu Varaha Swamy Temple

Bhu Varaha Swamy temple is a Hindu temple, located at Srimushnam, in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Constructed in the Dravidian style of architecture...


the temple is dedicated to Varaha (Bhu Varaha Swamy), the boar-avatar of the god Vishnu and his consort Lakshmi as Ambujavalli Thayar.

The temple had contributions from Medieval Cholas of the 10th century with later expansions by Thanjavur Nayak king Achuthappa Nayak.


A granite wall surrounds the temple, enclosing all the shrines and the temple tanks. There is a seven-tieredrajagopuram, the temple’s gateway tower.

Six daily rituals and three yearly festivals are held at the temple, of which the Chariot festival....


celebrated during the Tamil month of Vaikasi (April–May), being the most prominent. The festival also symbolises Hindu-Muslim unity in the region – the flag of the chariot is provided by Muslims; they take offerings from the temple and present to Allah in the mosques.

ugh i wanted to do a thread about the wars in Star Wars and how the two outlying wars (the clone wars in the prequels and the cold war/civil war in the sequels) are really weird but i don't feel like it any more.

my first argument is that the Clone Wars were a really complex morally gray moment in Star Wars canon in like, 5 different directions and I'd kind of like to know why Lucas did that.

especially with the direct line that's drawn in the OT with the allegory of WW2 and Vietnam with the rebels being the Vietnamese and the Empire being America. That...doesn't exist in the Clone Wars.

for starters: it's weird it's called the Clone Wars. I get why, because that's what Kenobi calls it in STAR WARS, but the clones are a small facet in the larger story of the war.

the clones basically only exist as a macguffin in AOTC that is...extremely confusing ultimately. Because if you accept that Sidious has this grand master plan to use this war to destabilize the Republic and form an Empire...it's way too complex.

Starting my 2nd thread on Sringeri Parampara. This will cover the Jagadgurus after Sri Vidyaranya to Sri Shivabhinava Nrisimha Bharati.

It is really very tough to match the brilliance and achievements of Vidyaranya. After whom came 15 - Chandrashekara Bharati [1386-1389].

The next Acharya was Nrisimha Bharati [1389-1408]. Harihara raya found a town for this Acharya - Narasimhapuram. Acharya helped the king by guiding him in political affairs. He also initiated the kind with mahamantras for spiritual development.

Subsequent Acharyas were
15-Puroshottama Bharati [1408 - 1448]
16-Shankara Bharati[1448 - 1455]
17-Chandrasekhara Bharati II [1455 - 1464]
18- Nrisimha Bharati II [1464 - 1479]
19-Puroshottama Bharati II [1479 - 1517]

20-Ramachandra Bharati [1517 - 1560]. Sadashiva Raya was emporer of Vijayanagara during this time.
21-Nrisimha Bharati III [1560 - 1573]
22-Nrisimha Bharati IV [1573 - 1576]
23-Nrisimha Bharati V [1576 - 1600]

24-Abhinava Nrisimha Bharati [1600-1623]. When he visited Malahanikareswara temple for first time he noticed there was no Vinayaka there so he took piece of turmeric and drew outline of Ganesha on a pillar and offered puja.
