NEW DELHI: Hearing Babri Masjid case on day-to-day to basis, the Indian Supreme Court Thursday took note of the submission of a lawyer, representing Muslim parties that he has been receiving threats, international media reported.
“This is not the right atmosphere conducive for hearing,” a five-judge Constitution bench said, adding that these things should not happen in the court and “one word from your Lordship” will be enough on this.
Thursday morning, when the bench assembled to commence hearing in the decades old politically sensitive case on 22nd day, senior lawyer Rajeev Dhavan, appearing for the Sunni WaqfBoard and others, alleged that he has received a threat message on social media warning that “they will see him outside the court”.
Claiming that he was “under pressure”, Dhavan said that some people also messaged him asking which side he was on and whether he is against the deity (Ram).
“This has to be deprecated. This is something which should not be happening,” the bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi said, adding that “both sides are free to
put their arguments be-fore court without any fear.”
