The decision is going to come today on the demand for cancellation of bail of Ashish Mishra, the son of Union Minister of State for Home Ajay Kumar Mishra alias Teni and the main accused in the Lakhimpur Kheri Violence case. The Supreme Court will deliver its verdict today on the petition filed against the Allahabad High Court's decision to grant bail. Last year, eight people, including four farmers, were brutally murdered by a jeep in Lakhimpur Kheri during the farmers' agitation. It is alleged that the jeep with which the farmers were crushed was driven by Ashish Mishra.
The court had reserved the verdict on April 4
A bench of Chief Justice NV Ramana, Justice Hima Kohli, and Justice Suryakant is going to pronounce the decision on the petition for cancellation of bail. The High Court's decision to grant bail has been challenged by the families of those killed in the violence. At the same time, the bench of Justice Ramana, after hearing the arguments of all the parties, had reserved the decision on April 4 itself. On the other hand, the Supreme Court had also objected to the High Court's decision during the hearing in which 'irrelevant' information in the FIR and the post-mortem report was considered as the basis for granting bail to accused Ashish Mishra.
UP government also opposed bail
The UP government had also strongly opposed the bail plea of Ashish Mishra in the apex court. However, Yogi Sarkar's lawyer had also said that comprehensive protection has been provided to the witnesses connected with the case. He had said that it is wrong to say that the accused may harm the witnesses as they have made elaborate security arrangements for all.
The family of the deceased had appealed
The families of the farmers killed in the violence had filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking a stay on the bail order of the High Court. It was said in the petition that this decision is not correct in the eyes of law as no meaningful and effective assistance has been given by the government. However, earlier advocates Shiv Kumar Tripathi and CS Panda had filed a petition in the Supreme Court for cancellation of Ashish Mishra's bail, on which the apex court took suo moto cognizance.
this is the whole matter
Let us tell you that this case pertains to the violence that took place on October 3 last year in Lakhimpur Kheri district during the visit of Deputy Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Keshav Prasad Maurya to the area. Some farmers were opposing Keshav Prasad's visit, on which an SUV car was rammed at high speed and the farmers were crushed. A driver and two BJP workers were allegedly thrashed to death by angry farmers following the violence. It is alleged that Ashish Mishra was driving this car.
