Center spoke to court on hate speech case, police should decide when to lodge FIR

A petition was sought on Wednesday, Wednesday, in the Supreme Court requesting the filing of an FIR against the leaders for the hate speeches allegedly inciting the violence in Delhi. Here, the Center asked the Supreme Court to let the police decide when to file an FIR in the matter of hate speech.

A bench headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde agreed to hear the petition filed by the riot victims. Senior advocate Colin Gonzalvis, appearing on behalf of the riot victims, referred this petition for immediate hearing.

Gonzalvis said in a hearing held on March 2 that the Delhi High Court postponed the hearing of cases related to the riots in the national capital for four weeks, despite the news that people had died due to the recent violence continued unabated. Bobde said that we read newspapers every day in which we are accused. We have a lot of pressure. We do not want people to die … We want peace. But the court has never been able to stop such violence. At the same time, the court of Delhi has deferred hearing till April 23 on the petition filed against the two BJP leaders in the matter of giving hate speech during the Delhi Assembly elections.

The Delhi riot victims filed a petition before a bench headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde in the Supreme Court. The lawyer filing this petition demanded an early hearing in the case on which the Supreme Court was ready. Let us tell you that earlier the Delhi High Court had deferred the hearing in this case for four weeks.
