Tezzbuzz Desk – A big update has come out on the ongoing controversy in the dual citizenship case regarding Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. The Allahabad High Court has currently stayed its own previous order of registering an FIR against him, due to which this matter has once again come into the limelight.
In fact, yesterday the Lucknow bench of the High Court had ordered to register an FIR against Rahul Gandhi, but later reconsidering the order, the court clarified that it would not be appropriate to order an FIR against any proposed accused without issuing a notice. On this basis the court postponed its earlier direction.
In this case, Karnataka resident S. Vignesh Shishir had filed the petition. He has alleged that serious charges are made against Rahul Gandhi under the Indian Justice Code, Official Secrets Act, Foreigners Act and Passport Act. The petition also demanded a CBI inquiry into the matter.
During the earlier hearing, Justice Subhash Vidyarthi had talked about registering an FIR and transferring the case to CBI. However, later, before typing the order, he reviewed the old decisions and legal provisions, which made it clear that in such cases, it is necessary to give notice to the accused.
Citing its old decisions, the court said that ordering an FIR without giving notice is not in accordance with the judicial process. For this reason the High Court decided to stop its earlier order.
Meanwhile, petitioner Vignesh Shishir has said that he will complain to the Chief Justice of India (CJI) against this decision. He claims that serious allegations in the case are being ignored and a detailed investigation is necessary.
According to the information, this case was first filed in the special MP/MLA court of Rae Bareli, which was later transferred to Lucknow on the instructions of the High Court. After the petition was rejected from there, the matter again reached the High Court, where earlier an order was given to register an FIR, which has now been postponed.
