The Supreme Court has allowed terrorist Yasin Malik to produce video conferencing in Jammu Court. This will speed up the cases related to the 35 -year -old Rubia Saeed kidnapping and murder of 4 Air Force officers. Yasin, appearing online for his lobbying, said that he is not a terrorist, a political leader."Auto" Style ="Text-Align: justify;"> & nbsp;
A bench of Supreme Court Justice Abhay S Oka and Justice Ujjal Bhuiyan described Yasin’s argument as fruitless. Justice Oka said, “We are not hearing whether you are a terrorist or a political leader.” To this Yasin Malik said that he has supported 7 Prime Ministers of India- VP Singh, Chandrashekhar, PV Narasimha Rao, HD Deve Gowda, IK Gujral, Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh in peace efforts."Auto" Style ="Text-Align: justify;"> & nbsp;
The judges were not impressed by these arguments. He said that according to the rules, it is possible to muscle and cross examination of witnesses through video conferencing. Proper facility of video conferencing is available in Tihar Jail and Jammu Court, therefore, Yasin Malik should be produced in Jammu Court in online mode itself. If the court judge ever feels that there is a technical problem in the action, then he can stop the hearing till the problem goes away.

This case was pending in the Supreme Court since 2022. The CBI then challenged the orders of the special TADA court of Jammu, in which 2 different cases were asked to present Yasin Malik personally. The CBI had said in its petition that Malik, who is lodged in Tihar Jail in Delhi, cannot be taken to Jammu for security reasons."Auto"> & nbsp;
In the last hearing, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta had said that Yasin Malik is not an ordinary terrorist. He has great contacts in Pakistan. Tushar Mehta also said that this is not the case in which all the things written in the books of law should be followed."yj6qo" Style ="Text-Align: justify;"> & nbsp;
