AnnaGaru Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Kathua case: Lawyer for main accused(in 8 year old rape) appointed as additional advocate general(by governor as Delhi BJP heads choice) New Delhi: The appointment of Aseem Sawhney, the lawyer for one of the accused in the Kathua gang rape and murder case, as an additional advocate general for the Jammu and Kashmir High Court by the state governor has come as a surprise to many. JAMMU: lawyer who represented the main accused in the gang-rape, torture and killing of an eight-year-old girl in Jammu and Kashmir's Kathua has snagged a government post. Aseem Sawney has been appointed additional Advocate General of the state. The lawyer claims he is not appearing in the Kathua case anymore. A government role for a man who defended the Kathua accused has provoked sharp reactions and is being seen as a political message weeks after the ruling BJP yanked support from the government of Mehbooba Mufti. The state was placed under governor's rule on June 20. https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/jammu-kashmir/kathua-defence-counsel-appointed-aag-mehbooba-omar-flag-concern/622659.html https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/lawyer-who-represented-kathua-rape-accused-gets-government-post-1885668 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
