Raval says that the letter is in today's affidavit.


SG : Oh yesterday night it was not on record. Both of us are right.


Justice Arun : Anyway it is on record.


SG : We'll leave it at that.

Justice Arun : Perhaps that may not have reached the SG.


Solicitor General : That's okay Mr Raval. I withdraw the statement. The letter is important.


Raval : It is the letter addressed to the Director General of Prisons, not Director General of Police.

Solicitor General : Abuse of process of law is so flagrant and so manifest that your lordship's power under Article 226 read with Section 482 CrPC has to be invoked.

Solicitor General : This is the absurdity of the situation which is not contemplated by law.

Solicitor General : What I would suggest is that register an FIR against Kerala Police for fabricating evidence. If their FIR is correct, my FIR will also be correct.
