On October 29, a special bench, comprising justice FM Ibrahim Kallifulla and justice R Bhanumathi, passed an order holding the then city police commissioner K Radhakrishnan, then ACP (Law and Order) AK Viswanathan, then joint commissioner of police (North) Ramasubramani and then DCP, Flower Bazaar police station, Prem Anand Sinha, responsible for the violence. The bench suggested suspension of the four officers. But the Tamil Nadu government challenged the order in the Supreme Court. The SLP (special leave petition) is still pending.
Meanwhile, CBI, which constituted a Special Investigative Team (SIT) to probe the incident, has filed six chargesheets in the court of additional chief metropolitan magistrate, Chennai. Chargesheets were filed on 31 advocates, one law college student and 27 police personnel. But the advocates' demand for action against the four top cops was not fulfilled.
CBI did not comment on the matter because it was still pending in the Supreme Court. So agitated advocates filed petitions in the court asking it to reject the chargesheets as they did not include the names of the four senior police officers. But the magistrate accepted the chargesheets and asked the CBI to probe the issue further. Not satisfied with this order, the advocates’ associations called for a single-day token strike which went peacefully.
