Trending

Kochi: Kerala high court has adjourned to Thursday the petition filed by former DGP Tomin J Thachankary seeking bail by suspending his conviction and four-year sentence in a disproportionate assets case, to enable the state govt to file a written counter.Justice A Badharudeen issued the directive on a request by the public prosecutor appearing for the state, who opposed the petition and sought time to file its objection, submitting that the case involved exceptional circumstances.During the hearing, the court orally observed that âitâs a message to all DGPs, chief secretaries, even chief ministers and the prime minister that law is not so feeble as to book even persons holding high positions without any discrimination based on their status.âThe court further pointed out that though Section 389 of the CrPC does not require the state to file a written objection when the sentence is below 10 years, Supreme Court judgment placed on record makes it clear that there is no bar on adopting such a course in exceptional circumstances. Accordingly, the bench granted a day to the state govt to file its objection to the relief sought by Thachankary and adjourned the petition.
