The Supreme Court has directed the Uttar Pradesh government on Wednesday (April 28) that Siddique Kappan, a Kerala journalist arrested last year, be admitted to RML or AIIMS or any hospital where it is possible to treat him. Let me tell you, Kappan is infected with Covid-19. The Supreme Court also said that the journalist should be shifted back to Mathura jail after treatment.
Let me tell you, Siddique will have to appeal before the appropriate court for bail. The journalist was arrested on the way to Hathras, where a Dalit girl died after an alleged gang rape on 14 September last year.
A three-member bench of Chief Justice NV Raman, Justice Suryakant, and Justice AS Bopanna asked Solicitor General Tushar Mehta to get instructions from the state government on this advice. The bench said that further hearing on the petition filed by the Journalists Union of Kerala (KUWJ) and Kappan's wife will be held at one o'clock in the afternoon.
Saucyter General Tushar Mehta expressed opposition
Saucyter General Tushar Mehta, appearing on behalf of the Uttar Pradesh government, opposed the court's instruction, saying that many similar accused are being treated in state hospitals and that Kappan should not get special attention just because The petitioner is a journalistic body.
On the court's order, Mehta said, 'You order to get the accused admitted in a Delhi hospital, we have to adjust Kappan instead of a patient, for this, I am not able, so order it.' The CJI said that you should make this arrangement yourself. We are limited to the issue of health. It is also in the interest of the state that the accused get better treatment.
On November 16 last year, the apex court had asked Uttar Pradesh to file its reply on a petition challenging the arrest of the journalist. An FIR was lodged against four people for allegedly having links with the Popular Front of India (PFI) under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and provisions of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).
