New Delhi: The Supreme Court has refused to interfere in the Jamia and Aligarh Muslim University violence case, asking the petitioners to approach the concerned High Court. During the hearing of the petition on Tuesday, Chief Justice S. a. The Bobde-led bench asked the petitioners why they came directly to the apex court and why they did not go to the High Court.
During the hearing, the top court said that if someone is breaking the law, stoning, burning buses then what will the police do? The bench made this remark when the petitioners stated that they should not be arrested in the case registered on students at Jamia and Aligarh University. With this, the Supreme Court has asked the petitioners to go to the respective High Courts.
Expressing displeasure over the filing of the petition directly in the Supreme Court, the bench told the lawyers - Indira Jaising and Nizam Pasha - that the apex court cannot be treated like a trial court. The bench said, 'We will not interfere. This is a problem of law and order, how did the buses burn? Why didn't you go to the High Court? High courts are capable of hearing. The Supreme Court remarked that it would have been better if the students who were angry with the police action had gone to the respective high courts.
