GANGTOK, 17 July: The Bar Association of Sikkim has called on the High Court of Sikkim to take immediate action against the SP [East] Manoj Tiwari and his subordinate officers for having allegedly beaten up two officials of the Subordinate Court while they were returning from duty last evening.
The Bar Association of Sikkim has resolved to stand up against the violation of the fundamental rights of the two members of the Court fraternity.
In a memorandum submitted to the Chief Justice of Sikkim High Court along with the companion judges, BAS has urged that cognizance be taken of the incident and a Judicial Enquiry initiated into what it sees as the merciless beating up of Karma Tshering Topgay and Chung Chung Bhutia by the SP and subordinates under his command.
The Bar members further prayed the court to take such action against SP East and suspend him to ensure that the judicial enquiry is conducted in a free and fair manner without the said person being able to influence witnesses or tamper with evidence.
Both the victims have lodged FIRs against the SP and his subordinate officers.
The BAS members have unanimously condemned the police action against the members of the Court fraternity as barbaric.
This afternoon, the District Magistrate, East visited STNM Hospital and met with the injured and enquired about their health. He also ensured that all necessary treatment was provided to them.
BAS plans to wait for another two days for action on their request and if not satisfied, will pursue the matter legally, it is informed.
