Let us tell you that before this, a hearing was held in the Supreme Court on September 13 regarding the Pegasus espionage case. During the hearing, the central government had made it clear that it was not going to file an affidavit in this matter. The government had said that it is not a matter of public discussion, so cannot file an affidavit. But she has agreed to set up a panel to probe the allegations of espionage.
Supreme Court expressed displeasure
Supreme Court Chief Justice NV Ramanna slammed the central government on the Pegasus issue for refusing to give the affidavit, saying that you are going back on the same point again and again. We want to know what the government was doing till now. We are not going towards issues of national interest. Our limited concern is about the people. The appointment of the committee is not an issue. The purpose of the affidavit is to let us know what you are doing.
During the hearing, the bench had said that we do not want any information related to defense, security. Justice Surya Kant said, before us, some petitioners are alleging violation of rights through illegal use of spyware. We only want to know the side of the government in this matter from the detailed affidavit. The petitioners have requested a direction to the Cabinet Secretary to file an affidavit.
