Acquittal Of Prof G N Saibaba & 5 Others Is A Lesson In The Importance of Criminal Procedure In Securing Personal Liberty

Of 293 pages in the 5 March 2024 Bombay High Court judgement acquitting former Delhi university professor G N Saibaba of terrorism charges, almost 240 examine a litany of procedural non-compliances in the prosecution case against the disabled, 57-year-old who spent a decade in jail without bail or parole, even when his parents died. Without adherence to legal procedure, especially when life and liberty are at stake, nothing stands in the way of the police entering homes at night, rummaging through belongings & taking us away without anyone ever knowing.
