Appalled Vikas Dubey was on bail despite so many cases: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court on Monday told the Uttar Pradesh government that it was "appalled" that gangster Vikas Dubey was released on bail despite so many cases registered against him, adding that it showcased the "institutional failure" to keep someone like him behind the bars, according to an IANS report.

 

"We want an accurate report on all the orders. What is at stake is not that one incident in Uttar Pradesh. What is at stake is the whole system. Remember that," observed Chief Justice SA Bobde, who is heading the Bench hearing the matter.

 

The court also directed Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Uttar Pradesh government, to look into the statements made by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and his deputy on the Vikas Dubey matter.

 

"If they have made certain statements and then something has followed, you should look into this," the Chief Justice remarked.
