Prima Facie 'Law Maker Broke The Law': Punjab & Haryana HC Refuses MLA Mamman Khan's Plea Against Separate Trial In Nuh Violence Case

Live Law

The Punjab & Haryana High Court has dismissed the plea filed by Congress MLA Mamman Khan against segregation of his trial by the trial court in Nuh from other accused in connection with the July 2023 Nuh violence case. Justice Mahabir Singh Sindhu said, "in view of the charges framed by learned trial Court, prima facie, it is discernible that petitioner being a lawmaker, has broken the law and in order to maintain the faith of common man as well as to uphold the Rule of Law, there would be no harm, if the elected representative is brought to justice, expeditiously." It further added in the order that, “On the other hand, as per direction issued by the Supreme Court, the cases of MPs/MLAs are to be decided on priority basis by taking up the case on day to day basis.” The Trial Court opined that the case has been identified for current action plan and therefore, in the interest of justice and fitness of things, case of accused Mamman Khan is to be tried separately. After examining the submissions, the Court pointed that, “after segregation of trial on 28.08.2024, charges were framed against the petitioner on 25.11.2024; two prosecution witnesses have been examined on 11.12.2024 and as such, trial is going on smoothly.” Justice Sindhu highlighted that, it is not the case of petitioner that charges framed by the trial Court are prima facie not made out against him.
