In another Rural Municipality-5, the village chairman and former ward chairman, who demolished the houses of Dalits in the name of untouchability in the name of Maha Yagya, have been released on bail. Village President Shivji Yadav and former ward president Dilip Yadav, who were released on bail from the district court, held a rally on Friday to give a glimpse of victory.
The Siraha District Court has ordered that they be released on a bond of one lakh rupees each, who were arrested on March 9th for crimes related to caste discrimination and untouchability. The bench of Judge Vidur Kafle has given such an order after detention.
Being released on bail in the court does not mean getting rid of the case . Bail is taken to ensure that the accused will appear in court when summoned for legal proceedings until the case is over. If the accused is not present at the time called by the court, the bond will be forfeited.
However, they were released on bail in the court on Friday afternoon from Ganeshpur Chowk located in Aurhi-4, standing on a four-wheeled vehicle and going round and round in different parts with a lascar of workers on motorcycles. Local leaders have objected saying that this is mocking the rule of law and causing more pain to the victims. They are still accused, not acquitted. Even if they are acquitted, this cannot be done in a legal state,'' said Suresh Chandra Das of Aurhi, who is also a former MP, 'but, they showed arrogance and frenzy.' The activism of the police, public prosecutor and the court to release the two people in custody has been unnatural. The police submitted the investigation report to the public prosecutor's office only on Thursday of the case in which the complaint was registered on Chait 10. The public prosecutor's office, which spends at least two/three days studying the reports of other cases, registered the charge sheet in the court on Friday, the day after the police report.
In this event, you have been unusually active, right? In response to the question, District Attorney Rajendra Basnet claimed that everything was done in a procedural manner. "We have done everything in a procedural manner," Basnet said in a conversation with Kantipur, "We studied the police report, we didn't hold back after everything was done." "Nimukha, who is arrested in ordinary indecent behavior and theft cases, is kept in jail for 20-25 days," he said, "However, the activity shown by the government agencies in such a serious case is questionable." According to local Manoj Paswan, who is helping Dalit community victim Deepak Mallik, the behavior of the village head and former ward president when he was released made the victim's family feel insecure.
"Victory should be celebrated by the victims for bringing them to the legal court," he told Kantipur, "But the accused showed poor behavior." He said that after the police submitted the report to the public prosecutor, they knew that the arrest would be until Sunday and even though they had made legal preparations in the same manner, they were surprised to hear that the arrest would be made today.
"Only yesterday the report was received by the public prosecutor, we were informed that the public prosecutor will study it for two or three days," he said. Bajrangi Baba used the dozer of the village and destroyed it. After this incident came to the media, the municipal president and the pre-ward president were arrested.
On Chait 10, the day after they were arrested, the victim's family filed a complaint against them with the district police for caste discrimination and untouchability. In this crime, there is a legal provision of imprisonment from 3 months to 3 years and a fine of 50 thousand to 2 lakh rupees .
