Lakhimpur Kheri Case: Supreme Court Asks Trial Court To Frame Charges In Case Against Ashish Mishra

Live Law  

While hearing the bail plea of Ashish Mishra, son of Union Minister Ajay Mishra, in connection with the farmer killings in Lakhimpur Kheri on Friday, the Supreme Court on Friday asked the Trial Court to fix the matter for framing of charges. The crime took place on October 3, 2021, when several farmers were holding protests against the visit of Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya to Lakhimpur Kheri district, and four protesting farmers were killed after they were allegedly mowed down by an SUV which was part of the convoy of Ashish Mishra. Today, a Bench of Justices Surya Kant and Vikram Nath was told that though the chargesheet was already submitted, the trial court was yet to pass appropriate orders regarding framing of charges. Initially, the Allahabad High Court had granted bail to Mishra on February 10, but it was set aside by the Supreme Court bench comprising the then CJI NV Ramana, Justice Surya Kant and Justice Hima Kohli in April 2022 after noting that the High Court took into account irrelevant considerations and ignored relevant factors.
