According to Das, the court had earlier stated that no action would be taken against protesters who did not have a criminal background. The latest clarification, he said, explained that criminal antecedents referred only to involvement in serious offences such as murder and rape.
The Supreme Court’s clarification on cases registered during student protests has been welcomed by Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) chief spokesperson Saurav Das, who described it as a major victory for students and young people across the country.
States Can Withdraw or Close FIRs Through Due Process
Das said the court had clarified that states, including Delhi, would be free to withdraw or close First Information Reports (FIRs) related to the protests or file closure reports through legally permissible procedures.
He said the clarification would provide relief to students and protesters who had participated in demonstrations and were concerned about the possible long-term consequences of criminal cases registered against them.
