“The hopes of the common people are belied when justice is delayed and the responsible government and authorities fiddle,” stated the LLT. It added that the “tardiness, inefficient management and non functioning on part of the CFSL (K) defeats the directive of the Supreme Court of India for speedy trial and justice in all such criminal cases.”
The LLT further called for Government of India and the Supreme Court to take Suo Motu cognizance of the current situation and initiate necessary action and corrective measures at CFSL (K), in order to “restore the faith of the common people in the government’s machineries for true and speedy justice.”
