Stan Swamy- "Govt. wants to remove me from the way!.." June 13, 2019 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ND-DA_QyIEA
The immense mineral and forest wealth of Jharkhand has always been the vulture vision of corporate enterprise houses. Their nexus with the government has been proving to be. The owners of the plots here are simple tribal people. Many people like Stan Swami have been fighting for the cause of these tribals for a long time. Obviously they are a big obstacle in the path of the government and the corporate arbitrariness. That's why Stan Swamy is saying:
'Government wants to throw me out of the way.. There is no evidence against me in Bhima Koregaon violence, yet the police is unnecessarily harassing me.'
What else Stan Swamy said:
The High Court has clearly said that the police do not have evidence against me.
The case against me started when I filed a petition in the High Court against the government against the innocent tribals lodged in the jails of Jharkhand.
The government is trying to divide the tribals, in the name of Sarna and Christian .. even inciting them to struggle against each other..
Most of the tribal MLA MPs have been sold.
- No more trust in the lower court, hope from the higher courts!
Who is the 82-year-old Stan Swamy, who has been living among the tribals of Jharkhand for three decades? ..know in this exclusive interview.
82-year-old Fa, who fought in the interest of tribals. On June 12, Maharashtra Police again raided the residence of Stan Swamy in Namkom (Ranchi). Even before this, last year on August 28, 2018, Maharashtra Police had raided Stan Swamy's place. The case is related to the Bhima Koregaon violence in Pune. Fact Fold this time in a long conversation with Stan Swamy, trying to know why the police are behind him?
Police efforts are on to connect the Bhima Koregaon violence with Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand. In January 2018, the police arrested several suspects in the Bhima Koregaon case in Pune, Maharashtra, ranging from P Varavara Rao to social activists such as lawyer Sudha Bharadwaj, Sudhir Dhawale, editor of the political magazine Vidrohi, human rights lawyer Surendra Gadling Social activist Mahesh Raut, Nagpur University professor Shoma Sen and Delhi-based social worker Roma Wilson are still behind bars.
In the Bhima Koregaon case, in August last year, the Maharashtra Police also raided the residence of Father Stan Swamy, a well-known human rights activist from Ranchi. After a long interrogation, the police had confiscated his laptop and some papers. After this incident, Stan Swamy appealed for justice in the Mumbai Court. The matter is under consideration. But in the meantime, once again, threats came at the residence of Pune Police Stan at 7:30 in the morning at Namkom. The news spread like fire in the city. Media cameras, including Father Stan's well-wishers and fellow workers, reached. Everyone was apprehensive that this time the police might not arrest Stan. After about four hours of long interrogation and raids, the police returned. And this time also Stan took many of Swami's papers and hard disk of his computer with him.

Justice Shinde said "If you don't have faith in the system, why approach the court?" https://www.livelaw.in/top-stories/bombay-high-court-takes-objection-lawyers-article-criticizing-handling-stan-swamy-bail-case-175185
(Comment: Do we have any other option? When given the circumstances, the power is with the court, whether we have faith or not, is not an issue. It is the option given by law, ...Yet we keep hearing many litigants keep saying "that they have full faith in the judiciary", I wondered why. This only happened with the Lord of yore!)
At the cost of repetition, I don't read news reports because of lack of time. But in this case, there was a discussion. Why come before us if you don't have faith in us? So many matters regarding freedom of speech and expression, which we have heard and allowed. Keep faith in us and in the system. We are here to do justice, unafraid of anyone."
Chaudhry was quick to add, "It is only because we have faith in the court that we come to the court. But sometimes, the court lets down the faith we have in it." Vehemently defending his junior's actions, Chaudhry said that neither he nor his junior had represented Swamy. And he would continue to write and also seek relief from the court. "If I am writing articles while arguing the same matter, then I or anyone from my chamber will rightly stand rebuked," he said, adding that the courts can be criticised for their decisions.
In response, Justice Shinde said he was not against freedom of speech and expression, but Swamy's bail plea was sub-judice. Moreover, the advocate may not have represented Father Swamy, but most of the Bhima Koregaon - Elgar Parishad Case matters are on a similar footing.
Comment2 : If the entire case of all the Bhima Koregaon case is on a "similar footing" cant we expect the court to take a holistic view of the matter, when it seems that court after court keep passing judgements in the narrow immediate plea.
