RE:Sanjay deserved this
by brij tyagi on Jul 31, 2007 10:04 PM

Dear Sir,
I do't agree that only tag of being Muslim, makes one terrorist.Here one should see whether
the award of TADA's court to Sanjay is within the parameters of court's juridiction or not?
I feel that the award is illegal and with out jurisdiction.My points are:

1/ TADA court has not found any evidence
against Sanjay under TADA ACT, and
accordingly,he was acquited under all the
sections of TADA ACT.

2/ Sanjay was only held guilty under Arms
Act.

Now,question arises,when Sanjay was not held guilty under TADA ACT,how could his intention be
brought in issue, while deciding his case for keeping weapons with out licence.It appears that
injustice has been caused to him.
More over,the another quistion arises as to whether the TADA COURT is empowered to try cases under ARMS ACT.If not,why SANJAY's case was not transfered to crimal court after he was acquited under TADA ACT,for trial under Arms
Act?
I my opinion,the TADA COURT does't have jurisdiction to pass sentence under Arms Act when intention of the accused is not connected
with terrorist's activities.
SUO MATTO this case may be taken by higher court of the country in the interest of the justice and fair play.
