Will Jagan Cases Move in MLA/MP Courts?
The Supreme Court rendered a significant decision after considering a PIL calling for the creation of special courts to hear criminal cases involving public employees and judges within a year and to permanently prevent guilty parties from having positions in legislative, executive, or judicial bodies.
The High Courts were instructed by the Apex Court to start suo moto procedures in order to quickly resolve issues that are pending against members of their respective states' legislatures, or MPs and MLAs. The resolution of these issues will need to be overseen by the Chief Justices of the High Courts.
The Supreme Court further mandated that courts try these cases on a daily basis and that, in the event that an extraordinary circumstance prevents the trial from being finished in a year, a report detailing the reasons for the delay must be given to the Chief Justice of the relevant High Court. For Andhra Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy, there would be significant issues if this ruling is carried out in its entirety. For almost a decade, Jagan Mohan Reddy has been released from prison.
Multiple adjournments and discharge petitions prevented the trial of his cases, which were lodged with the CBI and the ED, from ever beginning. Jagan ceased attending court when he was appointed Chief Minister, despite having requested around 3,700 adjournments over the course of these four and a half years. Then then, Jagan will be relieved to learn that a term has flown by trouble-free.
