arun81 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Atleast 5 years someone in the Media finally had the guts to report this news....Hope it doesn't disappear soon http://www.rediff.com/news/report/hc-notice-to-rahul-gandhi-on-missing-girl/20110301.htm The Lucknow [ Images ] bench of Allahabad high court on Tuesday issued notice to Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi [ Images ] on a petition seeking information about the whereabouts of a missing girl and her family. The girl and her family are alleged to be "untraceable" ever since they called on Rahul during one of his visit to his parliamentary constituency, Amethi on December 13, 2006. Moving a petition on behalf of the family, Kishore Samrite, former Samajwadi Party MLA from Madhya Pradesh [ Images ], has accused the Congress celebrity and his five foreigner friends of indulging in criminal assault on the 24-year-old Sukanya Singh. Claiming to have learnt this from some news website, the petitioner has stated, "I was moved by the news. So I came all the way from my home in Balaghat, Madhya Pradesh to Amethi where I found the girl's house locked. Local villagers were tight-lipped about the whereabouts of the family." He has, therefore, sought the intervention of the Allahabad high court "to issue a writ of Habeas Corpus to Rahul Gandhi to produce the missing girl Sukanya, her father Balram Singh and mother Savitri Singh." While issuing the notice, a single judge bench comprising Justice SN Shukla did not fix any date for hearing the case, the petitioner's advocate Surya Mani Raikwar told rediff.com
bihutoli Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 http://www.indianexpress.com/news/Case-against-Rahul--Ex-SP-MLA-fined-Rs-50-lakh/759223/ Looks like the Allahabad High Court has fined the petitioner and also mulls action against websites that have reported this incident. Rediff take note! While the judgement is correct, one cannot but help detect an alacrity on the part of this bench to quash this petition and dissuade others. Our judiciary is turning more and more sycophantic, not to mention corrupt. Take a note of this The court also ordered the CBI to register a case against websites which, Samrite claimed, had reported the incident, and the persons involved in the plot to frame Rahul Gandhi. How can you register cases against websites for reporting the truth? There was a case filed, the court themselves acted on it for godsakes. The fine and its distribution is also completely random. We are turning into a banana republic.
CSK Fan Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 The court was absolutely right in taking action. From the start they knew this was a stupid case but their hands were tied. there are thousands of genuine cases being dragged for years because some stupid people file such stupid cases taking everyone's time and money including yours and mine. Anything which can prevent foolish people from trying for their 2 minutes of fame should be welcomed
hari504504 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 ^^ How do we know for sure that it is a frivolous case ?

That was the ruling of the court. the girl in question herself came to the court and testified that she had nothing to do with Rahul and she has no idea why her name was dragged into this case
