1984 riots: CBI to record Surinder’s statement today

CHANDIGARH: For Bhai Surinder Singh, a key witness in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case being investigated by the CBI, it’s one battle won. The investigating agency contacted Singh’s lawyer Navkiran Singh on Wednesday, informing him that his client should present himself in the local CBI office in Sector 30 at 11 am on Thursday to record his statement before DSP SS Kishore from Delhi.

However, there has been no word on Navkiran’s other client, US-based Jasbir Singh, who apprehends threat to his life and has refused to come to India.

Both Jasbir and Surinder are witnesses against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler, who has been accused of leading a mob against Sikhs during 1984 riots. Post the summons, Surinder sounded upbeat but claimed that the pressure was still there on his family in Delhi. “My daughter-in-law is being pressurized to lodge a false case of dowry harassment against me. In return, she is being assured a passage to Canada, where my son and her husband, now lives. We have been trying to send her to Canada for the past several years, but Tytler seems to have had an upper hand.” Regarding his plea to the Punjab government to provide him security and means of livelihood since he cannot return to Delhi, adviser to the chief minister, Daljit Singh Cheema said the government “is doing the needful”.

On Tuesday, he had told TOI that there had been no positive response from the CBI despite his attempts to contact it in the past one week. Earlier, on February 13, Surinder had reiterated his resolve to give his side of the story after years of “living under pressure and facing threat to life”.

Wife kills three kids, files false dowry case, threatens to wipe out the husband and his family, before husband gets divorce !!

Wife kills three kids, files false dowry case, threatens to wipe out the husband and his family, before husband gets divorce !!

Abuse, threat by wife ground for divorce: SC

22 Feb 2007, 0047 hrs IST,Dhananjay Mahapatra,TNN

NEW DELHI: In probably the first case of its kind, a husband sought divorce from his wife on the ground of mental cruelty.

The latter was convicted by the trial court for murdering their three children, threatening to lodge false cases against her husband and even going to the extent of threatening to kill him.

On the day of her conviction by the trial court in Rajasthan, she threatened her husband with dire consequences. As she was pregnant at that time, she was granted bail and while on bail, she filed dowry harassment cases against her husband, which the police after investigation certified as false.

These are enough grounds for the husband to seek divorce and the civil court as well as the Jodhpur Bench of Rajasthan High Court rightly granted him a divorce decree, the Supreme Court said on Wednesday dismissing her appeal challenging the HC order.

Narrating the agonisingly excruciating experience of living with the woman after marriage in 1993, the man said she used to keep up the children with ropes and even attempted to throw them down from the rooftop while threatening him that she would wipe out his entire family.

On April 5, 2002, she left home with the three children to visit her parental home in the same village. After a search, the bodies of the children were recovered from the village well and the woman was also brought out from it.

The physical and mental torture, the threat on the day of her conviction and the false cases filed against her husband while on bail were the grounds that weighed on the mind of the court in granting divorce to him.

Laying down a general guideline for courts dealing with petitions seeking divorce on the ground of cruelty, an apex court Bench comprising Justices Arijit Pasayat and Dalveer Bhandari said it must be something more serious than “ordinary wear and tear of married life”.

“To constitute cruelty, the conduct complained of should be grave and weighty so as to come to the conclusion that the petitioner spouse cannot be reasonably expected to live with the other spouse,” said Justice Pasayat, writing for the Bench.

Petty quibbles, trifling differences should not be exaggerated and magnified to destroy what is said to have been made in heaven, the Bench said and advised the courts dealing with divorce petitions to weigh the accusations among spouses on this scale.

However, it warned them not to a hyper-sensitive view of such matters as it would be counter-productive to the institution of marriage.

My whole life for the past 12 years has been dominated by my wife’s false charges ..”

” …. My whole life for the past 12 years has been dominated by my wife’s false charges of dowry harassment against me,” said Gujarat engineer Ashok Patel, whose case has just been settled….”

India burns midnight oil for justice

Amrit Dhillon, Delhi

March 17, 2007

SPECIAL night courts have been set up in India’s western state of Gujarat to help clear some of the up-to 30 million cases currently choking the country’s legal system.

The Indian judicial system is notorious for its delays, with most civil and criminal cases taking up to 15-20 years to be settled. Divorced women go grey while waiting for maintenance. Children grow into adults while their divorced parents await a verdict on who will get custody. And people whose loved ones have been murdered age and die without the murderer being convicted.

The night court hearings are an experiment that began last November. The 44 night courts go on throughout the evening to clear the huge backlog of cases. Since November, 39,000 cases have been disposed of. The total number of pending cases in Gujarat is 3.2 million.

The Chief Justice of India, K. G. Balakrishnan, has said that if it proves successful, it will be replicated throughout India.

For millions of Indians, whose lives are traumatised by endless hearings and adjournments and huge lawyers’ bills stretched over more than a decade, the relief will be immense.

“My whole life for the past 12 years has been dominated by my wife’s false charges of dowry harassment against me,” said Gujarat engineer Ashok Patel, whose case has just been settled.

“Until December, only three of the seven witnesses had been examined. It could go on for another 12 or 15 years.”

For poor Indians, the mental burden, time and cost of fighting a case can make them think twice about seeking justice. The biggest advantage of the night courts is that litigants need not take time off work and lose income. Court employees, including judges, are being paid 25 per cent of their salaries as extra pay for working at night.

The monumental delays in civil cases are caused primarily by technical snags and lawyers’ endless delaying tactics.

In criminal cases, it is more complicated. Often the police are tardy in their investigations and late in submitting charges to the courts. Nor are they usually trained to gather evidence scientifically.

It is common for forensic evidence to be wrapped in newspaper, bound by jute thread and then produced in court. . Matters are made worse by the fact that there are only about 12 judges per million Indians. The impact of these delays is massive, not just on private lives but on public life too. Criminals, knowing that justice can be almost infinitely delayed, no longer fear the law.

“One reason why India hasn’t been able to tackle corruption is that the corrupt know they can use their wealth to hire a good lawyer and then quibble and cavil for years and go on living normally,” said Nirmal Vittal who, as the Government’s former Central Vigilance Commissioner, was entrusted with fighting corruption in public life.

For many ordinary Indians craving justice for the murder of someone they loved, the evening court idea — even if it is replicated all over the nation — has come too late.

These are people such as Sudha Tiwari, 72, who alleges that her 27-year-old married daughter, Jyoti, was set on fire by her husband Anil in 1982 over dowry. Twenty-five years later, Mrs Tiwari, now arthritic and diabetic, still cries when she talks of her beloved “flower” and “angel”.

For 25 years, she has been fighting to see Anil tried and punished. Throughout endless hearings and adjournments, Mrs Tiwari has turned up in court religiously. But last year, the energy in her died and she decided to attend no longer.

Husband says she had an affair, wife claims dowry harassment !!

Husband says she had an affair, wife claims dowry harassment !!

http://www.deccanherald.com/archives/feb92007/district212321200728.asp

Deccan Herald » District » Detailed Story

Women’s police station, but gender-insensitive

From Shruti I L DH News Service Mysore:

Sunaina was summoned to the police station on infidelity charges. Not only was she made to wait for six hours, but also not given an opportunity to defend herself.

Sunaina’s husband had filed a case against her for allegedly having an affair with her brother-in-law. Recalling her travails, she said, “I was asked to divorce my husband and let him off the hook.” This came from none other than a lady SI at the Lashkar Mohalla Women’s Police Station a few years ago.

Sunaina wanted to lodge a complaint of dowry harassment against her husband. “But I was abused and treated like a criminal and booked under a false case.”

When she approached the Police Commissioner, he only said, “Have faith in the system.”

However, Devamma, the incharge SI, said, “We never ask people to adjust in serious offences. When we feel things can be settled through counselling, we say so. If the victim wants to book a case, we do it.”

She, however, said officers need to be patient. “As cases which come here involve families, a lot of people come here. Sometimes, third parties create confusion.Only at such times do we raise our voice.”

Devamma said since she took over, she has ensured no favours are shown. “I have directed there should be no delay in attending to complaints.”

Prabha’s case was no different. The case turned against her due to pressure from higher officials in the police department who were in support of her husband.

Going by these reports, one can’t help wonder whether women’s police stations are serving the purpose for which they were set up. Such stations were expected to encourage women to come out and file complaints against atrocities meted out on them.

It isn’t enough to just have a separate police station for women. What is important is to make the police officers gender sensitive.

“Most of the time, it seems once they (women officers) don the uniform, they are no different from their male counterparts,” says Rati Rao, an activist of Samatha Vedike, a women’s organisation. “They should be made aware of laws related to women, she felt.

Warning

According to Police Commissioner Praveen Sood, it is not just women who are asked to adjust. “A lot of women who come here do not want criminal action to be initiated as offenders are their relatives. They usually want us to warn them.

Given this, we try to make them arrive at a compromise. But in cases of physical abuse or dowry cases, we book cases. There is no question of counselling.”

NGOs can be involved as they understand people’s problems better, says Sumana, an advocate. While Sood feels this is possible, he also stressed the need for NGOs to have a balanced view while dealing with such cases.

Meera Nayak, another Vedike activist, said the police station must be strengthened by appointing a regular officer. “It (police station) should be provided with a better support system, including vehicles and a separate office. They should also operate at the taluk and hobli levels.”

Equipping women’s police station with better facilities is the need of the hour. “Making certain laws more flexible will also help,” feels Sumana. “Laws related to non-cognisable offences can be relaxed. Once a case is filed under it, strict action, including arrest, is initiated. Thus, there is a delay in registering such cases at times,” she says.

The government’s responsibility to reduce incidents of violence against women does not end with the setting up of women’s police stations. It should support the victims by strengthening laws protecting women and by providing them with shelter.

Whether the women’s police station will emerge as a stepping stone to empowerment of women or go down as just another example of paying lip-sympathy to women’s issues is for the state to decide.

False complaint: Woman pays 5 lakh

False complaint: Woman pays 5 lakh
30 Apr 2007, 0256 hrs IST,TNN

AMBALA: A dowry complaint by a woman in collusion with her husband to get back a part of property her husband was disinherited from, cost the woman Rs 5 lakh as penalty to be paid to her in-laws. It is a landmark decision by a court against misuse of the provisions of dowry and torture against a woman.

Yamunanagar judicial magistrate (first class) Madhu Khanna on April 20 directed the complainant to compensate her in-laws who were falsely implicated in the case.The in-laws were made to suffer on account of unfounded, baseless and malicious allegations.

Judge in her orders said that the objective of Section 498-A IPC is to prevent dowry menace, but many instances have come to light where complaints are not bonafide and have been filed with oblique motive.

As per complaint case titled as Kawaljeet Kaur vs Davinder Pal Singh under Section 498-A, 406, 120B IPC under police station in Yamunanager, the complainant Kanwaljeet Kaur was married to Navneet Singh on April 14, 1992. Gurcharan Kaur, mother in-law of complainant disinherited her son Navneet Singh and daughter in-law Kanwaljeet Kaur in the properties through a public notice in newspaper on September 9, 1995 and disputes regarding property were pending between Navneet Singh- husband of the complainant and accused in courts at Saharanpur. No complaint was ever made by complainant prior to issuance of public notice by her in laws. Interestingly, the complaint levelled no allegation against her husband.

The magistrate observed that dispute is with regard to property and that the complaint was a cooked up story by her son and his wife in order to settle property dispute. The judge dismissed the complaint and acquitted the accused and termed this case as a classic example of misuse of beneficial provision of Section 498-A and directed the complainant for compensating the members of her in-laws family for malicious prosecution.

SHRC orders compensation to police harassment victim

News item from Indian Express :

SHRC orders compensation to police harassment victim

CHENNAI: The State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) has recommended to the State government to pay Rs 1.50 lakh compensation to a city-based advocate whose parents had committed suicide following alleged police harassment.

SHRC member S Sambandam, who made the recommendation on a complaint from T Vignesh, asked the State Home Secretary to recover the amount from the erring police personnel – J Baskaran, then Deputy Commissioner of Police, Law and Order, Salem City, K Perumal, then sub-inspector, Shevapet police station, Salem and Mayavathi, then Inspector, All Women Police Station, Sooramangalam, Salem.

The complainant had married one Sangeetha in November 2001 in Salem. But the marriage life was not peaceful and personal problems cropped up. Subsequently, Sangeetha’s brothers asked Vignesh to live with his wife separately leaving out his parents.

At one stage, his brothers-in-law asked him to transfer his family property in Sangeetha’s name. When he refused to oblige, the brothers-in-law assaulted him and instigated Sangeetha to file a “false” dowry harassment case against Vignesh and his parents, the complainant alleged.

Vignesh was forced to move the court with an anticipatory bail petition. Despite a court stay, the police came to his house and abused him in the presence of his neighbours.

In October 2003, things went out of hands and Vignesh’s mother and father, a former assistant public prosecutor, unable to bear the mental agony, committed suicide.

They had also left a suicide note saying that Sangeetha’s family was responsble for their death, Vignesh said adding that the police did not any proper action and had acted hand in glove with his brother-in-laws.

Vignesh wanted the SHRC to intervene and render justice. The SHRC held that it could only intervene in so far as the alleged violation of human rights by the said police officials was concerned and ordered the compensation. The rest of the allegations should only be dealt with by the trial court, the SHRC said.

“Lodging dowry harassment cases is a very convenient weapon in the hands of some unscrupulous elements. Police and investigating officers are pre-trial judges and they must weigh the evidence of both sides before coming to a conclusion,” the Commission observed.

“The complainant’s father was serving as an assistant public prosecutor where his work was to prosecute the cases of police and defend their actions, but the police went to an extent of harassing him which drove him and his wife to suicide. That being so, we can’t imagine what would be the fate of innocent and ordinary public,” the SHRC said.

100s of false case in Madurai as early as 1998

“….There are speculations about how genuine the dowry harassment complaints are, particularly the ones lodged by educated women. A cross-section of advocates who spoke to The Indian Express say that women are normally viewed with sympathy by the law. With many sections of the IPC giving the woman weightage against her husband and in-laws, some of the complainants (women) have indeed taken advantage of the laws to harass their in-laws, they claimed. …”

All-women police stations fail to live up to expectations

S Vijay Kumar

MADURAI, July 14: The All-Women Police Stations (AWPS) here set up to tackle the atrocities against women, do not seem to be serving the purpose.There are allegations that most petitions are not registered and are “settled” by other means by the women police and the cases are treated as closed.

The number of petitions received during 1997 in Madurai district alone was 706 and those registered were only 10. This year, 396 cases were reported till date and only seven were registered. There are two AWPS in the city located at Tallakulam and Thideer Nagar. Of the two, Tallakulam station registered more petitions, according to police sources.

Some of the officials in the judiciary department feel that the introduction of AWPS has not brought any remarkable change to alleviate injustice to women. The only change is that earlier the cases were filed by the respective police stations and now they are taken up by the women police. Most of the cases pertain to dowry harassment. Such cases, being an internalaffair, have to be dealt with using circumstantial evidence, they noted.

There are speculations about how genuine the dowry harassment complaints are, particularly the ones lodged by educated women. A cross-section of advocates who spoke to The Indian Express say that women are normally viewed with sympathy by the law. With many sections of the IPC giving the woman weightage against her husband and in-laws, some of the complainants (women) have indeed taken advantage of the laws to harass their in-laws, they claimed.

A case in Virudhunagar district was reported recently wherein, a girl lodged a complaint with the police that her in-laws were harassing her for more dowry. The aged in-laws were pushed behind bars and a case of dowry harassment among others was registered against them. In due course, police suspected foul play and on proper investigation, found that the charge was false and dropped action.

A top brass in the police department admitted that the AWPS was not performing up to the mark andmany petitioners were not really happy with the system. He attributed the cause to lack of professionalism and physical fitness among the AWPS personnel. The officer pointed out that the very purpose of separate police stations was to help women.

Referring to the `out of court settlements’, he said that by avoiding a case, both the petitioners are happy because, arrests, lawyer fees, and conviction are avoided. In fact, the petitioner would not like a case to be registered in most cases and she would normally insist that her husband or in-laws just be warned. Most of the petitioners belong to lower middle-class families residing in urban areas.

Attempt to murder and dowry case against former MP Amarjit Kaur and her son Pawaninder Singh

Filed under: Uncategorized — vinayak @ 6:50 am

Tribune News – Aug. 19, 2002

Dowry case against Amarjit Kaur
Tribune News Service

Patiala, August 18

The local police today registered an attempt to murder and dowry case against former MP Amarjit Kaur and her son Pawaninder Singh on charges of trying to murder the latter’s wife Amrina Singh, besides demanding more dowry.

The former Congress MP, who is also related to the Chief Minister, Capt Amarinder Singh, said the registration of the case was a ”conspiracy” and demanded a fair inquiry into it. “They want to defame me and they have registered the case as they have nothing else against me”, she added.

The Congress leader, who had unsuccessfully tried for ticket of the Ghanaur Assembly seat, however, refrained from explaining as to who wanted to defame her. She said the police had acted in haste and that such an action could not be taken against a person of her stature without a proper inquiry into the case.

According to the FIR registered in the Civil Lines police station against Mrs Amarjit Kaur and her son Pawaninder, both are accused of trying to strangulate Amrina, besides hitting her on numerous occasions. Amrina has also accused the duo of beating her up so brutally once that her foetus got aborted.

Amrina, who is the daughter of Mr Gurjit Singh Grewal, alleged in the FIR that her in-laws started demanding more dowry from her parents after she was wedded to Pawaninder on January 14 last year. She said the money was demanded for starting a hotel in Australia by her husband Pawaninder and when her parents expressed their inability they started persecuting her.

She also claimed that her parents gave her a sizeable dowry, including jewellery. She said her mother-in-law Amarjit Kaur had even taken away the jewellery from her. The case was registered on directions from SSP’s office.

Meanwhile, Mrs Amarjit Kaur claimed that all allegations were false. She said, ”I have been Chairperson of the Central Social Welfare Board and have been dealing with such cases. How can I practise what I have been constantly fighting against”, she added. She said she would be consulting her advocate soon and moving an application to get the case investigated thoroughly.

Immigrant spouse must be provided for despite divorce, court rules

Immigrant spouse must be provided for despite divorce, court rules

by Tom Hester/The Star-Ledger

Monday April 14, 2008, 1:35 PM

A state appeals court ruled today that a person who signs a federal form promising to financially support an immigrant spouse, must continue to provide for the spouse at 25 percent above the federal poverty level even after they divorce.

The decision stems from a divorce case involving Urvi Naik, and her ex-husband Sumeru Naik, both of Elmwood Park. After meeting for the first time at their arranged marriage in India in 2003, Sumeru Naik returned to New Jersey and signed a federal immigration affidavit promising to support his wife. Urvi Naik immigrated to New Jersey in 2005. The marriage was troubled from the beginning and Urvi Naik eventually moved out.

At a divorce hearing in state Superior Court in Hackensack, the judge found the marriage was brief, that there were no children and since Urvi Naik has a college-education and is a mechanical engineer who speaks three languages, Sumeru Naik did not have to pay alimony. The judge awarded her $15,300 in property value.

Urvi Naik appealed, arguing Sumeru Naik signed the federal pledge of support and was obligated to support her. The three-judge appeals panel disagreed.

“… After setting spousal and child support and equitable distribution, the court should only consider (the federal pledge) support if the sponsored immigrant’s sources of support fall below 125 percent of the federal poverty guidelines for the family unit size,” the judges held. “In that case the sponsor is required to pay the deficiency only. If the sponsored immigrant’s sources of support exceed this level, then no support is mandated by the Immigration and Naturalization Administration.”

IPS officer’s wife alleges torture by husband

IPS officer’s wife alleges torture by husband
25 Apr 2008, 0329 hrs IST,TNN

MUMBAI: A deputy inspector general-rank IPS officer’s wife on Thursday alleged mental and physical torture by her husband who “is bent on certifying” that she is mentally unstable.

“He wants to divorce me with mutual consent and is also bent upon certifying that I am mad so that his grounds for divorce become easier,” Pratima Nagrale, wife of Hemant Nagrale told reporters.

Nagrale, a 1987 batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer is currently posted as additional commissioner of police (East Region) in Mumbai.

Pratima said Hemant did not trouble her during the first 12 years of their marriage but later started “harassing” her after astrologers advised him against continuing in relationship with her, saying it may hinder his growth. “He pushed me out of his home in June last year and I decided to return home to be in the company of our two children on March 28 this year,” Pratima said, adding she does not wish to divorce Hemant.

Pratima said they had “big” argument through the day and the very next morning, a doctor came to their residence along with two constables to check her blood pressure. “When I protested, they held my hands and sedated me. I found myself at a clinic after I became conscious.”

However, the police are yet to register a case in the matter even after she wrote to the chief minister, she alleged.
