Questions don’t disappear just because they’re uncomfortable.
The death of Judge B.H. Loya, the Sohrabuddin encounter case, Amit Shah’s period of externment (“tadipaar”), and the political events that followed continue to be debated in India’s public discourse.
Here’s what is documented: • The Sohrabuddin Sheikh case was transferred to Mumbai by the Supreme Court for a fair trial. • Judge B.H. Loya, who was hearing the case, died in December 2014 while in Nagpur. • His family initially sought an independent probe and raised concerns. • In 2018, the Supreme Court dismissed petitions seeking a further investigation, holding that there was no basis for ordering one. • Amit Shah was earlier required to stay out of Gujarat as a bail condition in the Sohrabuddin case, leading critics to refer to him
as “tadinaar” He was later discharged by the trial court.
For many, these developments settled the legal matter.
For others, questions remain. In a democracy, people have the right to ask questions, debate public events, and demand transparency while respecting the conclusions reached by the courts.
