Re: HS Convicted in murder latest news - Page 2

Indian judicial system assumes the suspect as innocent until proven guilty. It's only during the court trial that the person holding the office might be temporarily suspended until convicted in the case. Hanuman Singh was acquitted in the Lower Court.

After a person loses a trial in the Lower Court he is entitled to take the case in Upper Courts provided the court allows him to do so. So the case was taken to higher authorities at that very time, but the hearing is scheduled now.

I'm not surprised it does take time. Since by the judgement of the Lower Court, HS was found innocent, he was immediately reinstated with all his duties. Now that the case is reopened, maybe, he will be temporarily suspended.

And hey, I'm Mahi btw. :)

Oh, hey Mahi! That's exactly how our Indian judicial system works! We are one of the world's oldest systems, unfortunately, there is no use. The constitution has been amended so many times and there has been so many changes in the geographical circumstances of India as well, still there is no change in our judicial system. Because, this is India...

That depends on the case as well. If someone was just suspected but not convicted as yet, they may or may not spend their days in jail. And of course, at times they were given bail and they were out of the jail, but again they would end up doing something horrible and again land in the jail. This would keep happening until, the court permanently convicts them. Our judicial system is insane. What about the place you live?

Just wow 😳 so if Hs really was a murderer and there weren’t enough evidence to convict him the first time round, he would literally be free to commit murder again while the high court gets to his case 😳😳😳

I live in the uk and the system is a lot quicker here and depending on the crime the person is either bailed or in a holding cell whilst he awaits a date for his hearing. Eg a non violent crime will easily afford the person bail with conditions attached however it won’t be so easy to get bail if it were a violent crime or a sexual crime. The death penalty does not exist here like it does in India (wish it did but prisoners have too many human rights that can’t be violated apparently) and sentences are often not as long as people would like. Very often a person only has to do half his sentence and can get off with good behaviour or get sent to what’s known as an open prisons where he gets to go out in public but has to return to the prison every day at a certain time whilst he lives there. I guess no matter where you are In the world no one is completely happy with the system as it seems there’s more crimes and criminals than ever before so it’s obvious it’s not working/rehabilitating people. From what a understand waiting times aren’t as bad it’s about a year, and cases are heard according to seriousness. Eg a murder case will probably get seen to quicker Then a big fraud case

One of the oldest system here in the uk also but I think the problem with older systems is that it takes so much longer for it to be modernised. They should create a separate part of government purely for reforming the judicial systems and I think that would mean that laws get updated a lot quicker.

Governments are still trying to write modern day crimes (cyber crimes etc) into law so where’s the tome to amend the old laws that were made hundreds of years ago.

Or I Think so anyways

Unfortunately for us, the judicial system has been kept independent inorder to keep the fairness of justice intact.

This elongates all procedures and justice though delivered, is often late. Very very late. Now suppose, if Imarti's father would've passed away in these years, for whom would th case be? Imarti who is long gone or HS who is himself in so much pain, to which there's no end? It's such a sad situation.

I think his liberation from the haunting past would be finally declared fully innocent. Only then he would be able to let go of her in truer sense and embrace Babes wholeheartedly.

So with this conviction, will HS be arrested and held in jail?

Conviction means being declared guilty for a case and crime.

HS has just got a notice of the court hearing. Now the case will be held in High Court (mostly Chandigarh) and if he is declared guilty, he will be served a jail term. If he is innocent, he will be set free. But I think, his position in police will temporarily be suspended until the hearing is over.

It all depends on the judge. If he really finds him guilty, then he would be sentenced. But, if he does not have any evidences, he is innocent! Just pray to CVs that the inspector does not have to spend his life in jail!!!

Oh gosh, if he's found guilty this time around, then they can't appeal the case again right, since this is already at the High Court?

You can appeal to SC since it was the prosecutor that requested the case to HC but obviously I think it happens only when another state HC recommends your case up the order. I don't remember exactly but it is something like this.

Obviously he will be declared innocent here, in true sense and not just acquitted for lack of evidence.
