Allahabad High Court

Allahabad High Court fined lawyer Mehmood Pracha Rs 1 lakh for wasting the court's valuable time

The Allahabad High Court bench also observed that it was probable that the allegations of sexual offence and homicide were made against the accused only to get financial support from the government.

The court said that the Indian Flag is a symbol of the unity and diversity of the nation beyond religious ethics and cultural differences.

The bench stated that suits of Hindu plaintiffs are not barred by any law including Places of Worship Act.

Allahabad HC denied bail to a Muslim man Imtiyaz Ansari who had pretended to be a Hindu, converted woman to Islam

As OpIndia reported back in 2020, accused Ajaj was unwilling to bring the Hindu victim to his home unless she converted to Islam. As the victim was reluctant to abandon her Hindu identity, Ajaj kept her in a rented room in the Obla area. Here, he was persistently pressuring the victim to convert to Islam.

Allahabad High Court stated that the right to freedom of religion does not imply a right to convert other citizens.

Allahabad High Court noted, “If this process is allowed to be carried out, the majority population of this country would be in minority one day, and such religious congregation should be immediately stopped where the conversion is taking place and changing the religion of citizen of India.”

The development comes three weeks after an FIR was filed against an accused named Adnan Khan for allegedly threatening additional sessions judge Diwakar.  

The counsel further informed the court that the NTA has decided to take legal action in the matter. Meanwhile, counsel representing NEET candidate Ayushi Patel informed the court that he has nothing to say in the petitioner’s defence. The court called it a "sorry state of affairs".
