旁遮普邦和哈里亚纳邦高等法院撤销了对旁遮普邦首席部长Bhagwant Mann和7个AAP MLA的FIR和所有相关诉讼, The Punjab and Haryana High Court has quashed an FIR and all related proceedings against Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and seven AAP MLAs over a 2020 protest in Chandigarh against a power tariff hike. 法院由Tribhuvan Dahiya法官主持,裁定不存在表面证据确凿的案件,指出没有根据《刑事诉讼法》第144条发出禁止令,因此抗议是合法的。 The court, led by Justice Tribhuvan Dahiya, ruled no prima facie case existed, noting no prohibitory order under Section 144 CrPC had been issued, making the protest lawful. 它没有发现任何证据将领导人与投掷石块或暴力行为联系起来,而这些行为可能是身体上的争吵造成的伤害,而不是蓄意攻击。 It found no evidence linking the leaders to stone-pelting or violent acts, with injuries likely resulting from physical altercations, not deliberate assault. 法院以缺乏证据和程序缺陷为由,驳回了根据《刑法》第147、149、332和353条提出的指控,包括没有根据第195(1)(b)条提出申诉。 The court dismissed charges under IPC Sections 147, 149, 332, and 353, citing lack of proof and procedural flaws, including failure to file a complaint under Section 195(1)(b) CrPC. 决定有效地结束了案件。 The decision effectively closes the case.
