Dr. Sinha's case: This case was a typical example of how the reliefs given to women in this country are misused by some females raising a question mark even to the genuine cases. In this case, the tiff between medical intern Neha Kapoor and her Prof. Sinha and Kabir taking the side of Prof. Sinha not only confused KKN but viewers also and then Manav Gupta grabbing the opportunity to defame Kabir by bringing Tarini into limelight with the help of a rival channel Khabar 29. The viewers got completely engrossed in this case due to two reasons. Firstly, they got to know one hidden aspect of the past of Kabir, raising a big question on Tarini's presence in his life and secondly, we also witnessed our sexy EIC disguising himself as Dr. Pandey in the Government Medical Hospital to dig out the truth behind the entire thing. From the legal point of view, this case was equally important since, this single case covered two legal clauses at one go. The first legal clause was sexual harassment and the second legal clause was illegal kidney trade.
The first case of Neha Kapoor's accusation against Dr. Sinha came under The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 is a legislative act in India that seeks to protect women from sexual harassment at their place of work. For this, a Vishaka Committee is established which is supposed to complete its enquiry within a stipulated time. If the person accused is found guilty, then the punishment is really gruesome including rigorous imprisonment along with heavy fine in the form of compensation to the victim. However, the same act is unfortunately being misused sometimes for revenge or for other reasons as shown in this case. Since, the Indian Law is by default is bent towards women, hence, in such situations, the males are really not left with any option but to succumb to such accusations.
The second case of Kidney Racket refers to Transplantation of Human Organs Act 1994 and the Transplantation of Human Organs Rule 1995. Organ transplant law does not allow exchange of money between the donor and the recipient. According to the Act, the unrelated donor has to file an affidavit in the court of a magistrate stating that the organ is being donated out of affection. After which the donor has to undergo number of tests before the actual transplant takes place. The Authorization Committee set up for the purpose ensures that all the documents required under the act have been supplied. If it is found that the money has been exchanged in the process then both the recipient as well as the donor are considered as prime offenders under the law.
According to the Indian law, organ sales are banned and therefore no foreigner can get a local donor. Human organ transplant laws are very strict in India and the penalty incurred for organ trade is also very high. Hence, showing of Dr. Kapoor taking money from the recipient party and then taking out the kidney without the consent of Harprit Singh or his parents is major criminal offence in the eyes of law.
Mahi Malhotra : This high profile case led to the bitter fight between Ananya and Kabir since, Ananya preferred to keep Mahi under layers rather than making her come on air. In this case, Mahi Malhotra was shown a drug addict who was made so by the goons to physically exploit her from time to time. Under the Drug policy of India, Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act 1985, it is a crime to engage into selling, purchasing or consuming drugs, hence, Mahi Malhotra was clearly a guilty in the eyes of law. However it should also be noted that Mahi Malhotra's case came under Drug Abuse . The various clauses of this Act was very meticulously taken care of, in this particular case. Kudos to Team Reporters!!!
