W.P.(C) No. 754/2016
TEHSEEN S. POONAWALLA VS UNION OF INDIA
A Three-Judge Bench of the Supreme Court unanimously held that the act of lynching is unlawful. No individual has the authority to enforce the law and punish fellow citizens by their own hands. The Court held that it is the task of the law to provide a procedure for arrest, investigation, and trial. The State is obligated to ensure the protection of the fundamental rights and liberties of every individual, regardless of their race, caste, class, or religion. The State is also responsible for promoting a secular, inclusive, and diverse societal framework. Further, the Court issued guidelines to curb the menace of vigilantism. However, the Court did not address the constitutional validity of the immunity provisions in the statutes challenged. The judgment was authored by Chief Justice Misra.
