Noting that the the very identity of the alleged accused persons is unknown, the Telangana High Court last week disposed off a PIL on the basis of a report in 'The Hindu' that that certain persons were made to move barricades under scorching summer sun by the police. Based on a news item, published in 'The Hindu', English daily news paper, on May 10 entitled as "Police, not Judges, award punishment", an advocate, Baglekar Akash Kumar, wrote a letter to the Chief Justice Raghvendra Singh Chauhan with regard to the incident reported, based on which, a suo motu Writ Petition was registered. The division bench noted that though the present petition is based on a news item published in 'The Hindu', even the reporter, who has given the said news item, is not in a position to reveal the identity of the alleged accused persons. "Therefore, it is very difficult to find out the actual identity of the alleged accused persons, who were allegedly forced to move barricades in hot summer days", it said.
