While hearing a bail application, the Delhi Sessions Court adopted an interesting manner of placing forth the facts leading to the verdict in the bail application..Additional Sessions Judge Amitabh Rawat proclaimed that there were merits in the application. However, he chose to record his observations on the facts of the case in a poem form..The judge wrote, "The present application has merits. Let me put it in a different way:Babu pleading for his bail;State opposing tooth and nail.Summers bygone, winters have arrived;But crime you did, and Rahul cried.I am not the one, I am not the one;Too grave the charge, don't pretend.Whom did I attack, where is he;Oh! That we know, in the trial we will see.You say I have said & I deny from the first blush; Rahul may be gone yet Satish said.Didn't we say; don't rush;Let me go, let me go, even Imran is on bail.Even then, even then;it wouldn't be a smooth sail.Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop;I have heard, heard a lot.Mind is clear, with claims tall;Its my time to take a call.Babu has a sordid past;proof is scant, which may not last.His omnipotence can't be assumed;Peril to vanished Rahul, is legally fumed.Take your freedom from the cage you are in;Till the trial is over, the state is reigned in.The State proclaims; to have the cake and eat it too;The Court comes calling; before the cake is eaten, bake it too.".Rawat made these observations in a bail application by Babu, an accused who was identified by the complainant for having shot a person in a riot. The complainant had also identified another person who had been granted bail by the court..Opining that Babu stood on a better footing than the other accused who had been granted bail, Judge Rawat deemed it fit to grant bail to Babu as well..Judge Rawat granted bail upon the furnishing of personal bond in the sum of Rs. 10,000/- with one surety..Babu was also restrained from leaving the jurisdiction of the NCT, Delhi without prior permission of the Court and from indulging in any kind of criminal activity..[Read order here]
