Madras HC orders ₹1 lakh compensation for girl forced to file POCSO complaint against father The Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court recently ordered ₹1 lakh compensation for a minor girl after noting that she was allegedly forced by child welfare officials to make sexual abuse allegations against her father. Justice KK Ramakrishnan passed the order while granting bail to the father, who had been booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012. The Court directed the Virudhunagar District Collector to pay the compensation to the child for the trauma allegedly caused to her. It held, "The object of the “1098” Child Helpline mechanism is to protect children in distress and to provide immediate assistance, care, and counselling. The said mechanism cannot be permitted to be misused in a manner causing further mental trauma and ignominy to children by compelling them to make false allegations. False allegations carry devastating consequences resulting in reputational damage severe psychological trauma and legal entanglements." The father was arrested on April 16 this year after a case was registered by the All Women Police Station, Virudhunagar. He was booked for offences under Sections 7 and 8 of the POCSO Act.

Noida workers protest: Supreme Court tells UP police to produce accused in court amid allegations of custodial torture The Supreme Court on Friday ordered the Uttar Pradesh government to produce before court two men arrested in connection with the Noida protest workers case, after a family member alleged that they were tortured in jail [Keshaw Anand v State of Uttar Pradesh]. A Bench of Justice BV Nagarathna and Justice Ujjal Bhuyan has ordered the production of Aditya Anand and Rupesh Roy before the Court on May 18 at 2 PM.

The plea alleges that Aditya Anand was subjected to custodial violence by the Uttar Pradesh Police following his arrest in the case, which involves allegations that he incited protests by industrial workers in Noida last month. The case arises from protests by factory workers in parts of Noida over demands for higher wages. The protests allegedly turned violent, and some protesters were accused of vandalising property, pelting stones and setting a vehicle on fire. An engineer named Aditya Anand was among the accused in the case. Senior Advocate Colin Gonsalves appeared for his brother, Keshav Anand, before the Court today.

Madhya Pradesh High Court declares disputed Bhojshala site as temple

Madhya Pradesh High Court declares disputed Bhojshala site as temple Is South Korea the exam GOAT? I Suneung system explained Did you know South Korea pauses flights during national-level entrance exams? The Madhya Pradesh High Court declared the disputed Bhojshala complex in Dhar as a Hindu temple dedicated to Goddess Saraswati and a historical center of Sanskrit learning. The court dismissed the previous order from April 2003 that permitted prayers by the Muslim community at the site. Relying heavily on a comprehensive scientific survey report submitted by the Archaeological Survey of India, the court observed the continuity of Hindu worship at the location. The judicial bench highlighted that the government has a constitutional obligation to preserve ancient monuments and sanctum sanctorums. Furthermore, the court ruled that the Muslim community can approach the government for alternate land within the Dhar district to construct a mosque. The Government of India and the Archaeological Survey of India have been directed to take over the administration, management, and conservation of the Bhojshala temple complex.

Delhi High Court asks CCI not to pass final orders in probe against Apple

Delhi High Court asks CCI not to pass final orders in probe against Apple The Delhi High Court on Friday asked the Competition Commission of India (CCI) not to pass final orders in its probe into global tech giant Apple for its alleged anti-competitive behaviour in the market for the App Store. A Bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia observed that passing the final orders could create "complications" since Apple's challenge to the competition law allowing retrospective penalties on global turnover is pending before the High Court. It said that it would adjudicate Apple's challenge since there are considerable issues involved. “We had issued notice only after finding something considerable in the matter. Proceed, but do not take final order," the Court told Senior Advocate Balbir Singh, representing the CCI. After initial opposition to the plea, Singh said that no final orders will be passed. He also said that Apple had sought extension on several occasions. Senior Advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi appeared for Apple and told the Court that even though its challenge to the Competition Act was listed in July, the CCI has scheduled the final hearing on May 21. Therefore, the Bench asked the CCI not to pass any final orders in the matter.
