      Justice Dhulia : This is 161 statement?

      SG : Yes, I will show 164 statements too.

      SG : These affidavits, these falsifications, they happened outside the Court. They were to be produced in Court. 

    • 2 Sep 2022 9:02 AM GMT

      SG : Who were the part of the conspiracy? What was the motive of the conspiracy? That is being investigated right now. We two statements under 164 which prima facie show it was a conspiracy, not some misunderstanding, but a calculated conspiracy to achieve something particular.

      SG : Somebody filed FIR with wild allegations, somebody tried falsification of evidence with a view to ensure some 70 people get capital punishment..

      SG reads from State's reply.

      SG : We had this material. But it was out of deference that we did not place, as this court was seized of the matter. 

    • 2 Sep 2022 9:00 AM GMT

      SG : SC also dismissed. Meaning thereby, there was some conspiracy, we have materials, in one of the reports of SIT told the SC that several people came with pre-typed statements, SIT said we can't take those. Those people said it was given by this petitioner...

      SG : Let me give a brief background, first round of litigation, SIT was appointed, Court allowed protest petition to be filed. Trial Court rejects protest petition. HC approves and this court also.

      SG : Third question your lordship put was, what was the material. The connected question was there was nothing further in the FIR apart from the judgment. I will demonstrate it is not true.

    • 2 Sep 2022 8:56 AM GMT

      SG : I am not labouring much on this point. I will give the propositions for the doctrine of election.There is a doctrine of elections- where if a litigant has two remedies and he voluntarily elects once is estopped from taking second.

    • 2 Sep 2022 8:55 AM GMT

      SG : I have instructions to say the learned judge disposes of 30-40 matters on the disposable judge. That's the system.Please don't make an exception, leaving my brief aside
