JNU student leader Kanhaiya beaten up by Lawyers

[INDIAPOSITIVE]

JNU students' union president Kanhaiya Kumar, who was arrested last week on sedition charges, was on Wednesday reportedly beaten up by some lawyers inside the Patiala House court complex in New Delhi.

Immediately after the incident, the Supreme Court (SC) rushed a team of lawyers with police protection to assess the situation at Patiala House court. The SC then asked Delhi Police counsel Ajit Sinha to tell the Patiala House magistrat to adjourn Wednesday's hearing and remove those present in the court room.

Kanhaiya was brought to the court as his police custody ends today.

Earlier in the day, in open defiance of Supreme Court order, a large group of men dressed in lawyers' robes again barged into the Patiala House court complex and allegedly beat up a journalist and a student ahead of the hearing in the sedition case of Kanhaiya Kumar, just like they did on Monday, February 15.

The group, which could be seen raising slogans "Vande Mataram" and waving India's flag in the court premises, was led by Vikram Chauhan, one of the lawyers who had attacked JNU students and faculty on Monday.

A journalist, identified as Anwar of the news channel CNN-IBN, said despite heavy police deployment, clashes erupted in the court complex and the cops' presence did not deter the lawyers from shouting slogans and fighting with journalists and students.

The Supreme Court had, earlier in the day, restricted the number of people inside the courtroom, allowing only five reporters and two supporters of the arrested students to attend the hearing.

The apex court was acting acted on a petition that alleged that the police were a "mute spectator to the brazen display of brute force" on February 15.


Yesterday, top editors of national media and hundreds of journalists hit the streets demanding action against those involved in beating up members of their fraternity in the court complex in the presence of police .

The journalists had also sought the SC's intervention in protecting freedom of speech.

"We were abused and called agents of Pakistan," senior lawyer Rajiv Dhawan, who was part of the panel, told the court.

"We would have been beaten up black and blue by lawyers if security cover would not have been given to us. Flower pot, pebbles and sand were thrown at us by lawyers who abused us and called agents of Pakistan," Senior advocate, one of the member of the Committee told the top court. He told the bench that the committee talked to Kanhaiya and other people in Patiala Court premises and came to the conclusion that the apex court order was blatantly violated.

The court in the morning passed a slew of direction to maintain security in Patiala court premises where journalists and JNU students were brutally assaulted on Monday.



Earlier, in open defiance of the Supreme Court order, the group of lawyers which assaulted journalists on Monday, again attacked media persons and JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar when he was being produced at the Patiala House Court.

Chanting slogans like "Vande Mataram" and waving the tri-colour, the lawyers including Vikram Chauhan and some others who who had allegedly attacked the journalists, teachers and students of JNU inside and outside the court two days back, today came in a march to the court complex.

"We are concerned about the law and order situation," a Supreme Court bench said when senior lawyer Indira Jaisingh informed the court about the fresh violence including the assault on Kumar when he was brought for remand proceedings.

Lawyers taking law into their own hands! The irony!

The ignorant believe that silencing voices that disagree with them is the way to national strength. All that it does is reduce innovative ideas in the society. Once you kill innovative ideas you've silenced scientific innovation as well, and the nation is well on the way to stasis and decay.

They were allowed to discuss Afzal Guru hanging, not bharat ki barbadi. Lol, US even arrests people over facebook posts, so don't give us advice.

No the US does NOT arrest people on the basis of Facebook posts. It arrests people for planning activities using Facebook but not for posting disagreeable material on Facebook.

There's a massive difference between the two.

They arrest people who they think is a threat to state.

No, they don't. They don't arrest people for their thoughts, they don't arrest people for their words; they arrest people for planning activities.

And not so long ago I was making fun of Pakistani lawyers for showering rose petals on Mumtaz Qadri.

No, they don't. They don't arrest people for their thoughts, they don't arrest people for their words; they arrest people for planning activities.

They arrested a person for making a clock timer.

ab kya kehne, ranjeet bhai??

your gentle description here is like how you had described the 'bajrang dal' attack on the student dalit intellectual from karnataka last year... he was threatened with finger-chop-chop by for daring to write against brahminical oppression and you had said that the attack was all about smearing vermilion ( making a teeka ) on the intellectual's forehead and giving him a warning, though these two things were also there but not the only things that happened.
