Chapter 16 in the courts
Early next morning Renjith woke up and prepared the Preliminary case bulletin a and emailed it to sanju.
Sanju was stunned at the detail encased in the bulletin what shocked him even more was that Renjith wanted to apply chapters of the IPC not sections as in other cases
These chapters where as follows
Chapter VI sections 122 thru 130 except sections 125 and 126
Chapter V A section 120B
Chapter V sections 107 thru120
Chapter VIII Sections 153,153A, 153B
Chapter XV Section 295,295A thru 298
Also including chapters XVI, XVII & XXII
Sanju elaborated on the bulletin and registered the case in the Supreme Court
The case was to be heard by the Honorable court on the next day
To say that the case caused a stir would be putting it very lightly
The case caused a shockwave in the media an article in a leading
Newspaper summed it up the best it red “malabar 1920 a rebellion or a riot? New case set to ask haunting questions on the so called rebellion”
The court room was nothing short of a tether with prosecution counsel Sanju tearing in to the defence lead by some of the most eminent lawyers of the land
The defence was trying its best to get the whole case quashed citing the same doubts that had haunted sanju but the defense counsel made strong arguments to the counter
The drama was not only limited to the court room the hashtag #Justiceformalabr was the top trending in twitter for the duration of the case
Both Renjith and sanju found themselves at the center of a lot of attention both good and bad
Mostly bad since they had dared to take on the system they often ridiculed by a section of the media
The situation in the court room was also not that different for sanju everything that he had earned and got was on the line
The defense was stooping to new lows every day it even went till the extant to call the evidence presented by sanju as false and fabricated
With almost borderline personal attacks but through all these two men stood firm and also had the support of their respective families
But on the other hand they were hailed as the defenders of the truth by most of the rightwing leaning section of both the mainstream print and social media
Such was the Public interest generated by the case that the court not only forwent its winter brake but also constituted a special bench headed by the chief justice of India to hear the case at Calicut the central government on advice of the attorney general and consolation with the supreme court upgraded this bench to a judicial commission it was known as the Malabar commission
The commission through its special reporter Mrs. Sheba the commission poured over mountains of archival material as most of the victimized families was long dispersed
It was hard and long process and to add to that the resistance encountered by the reporter in areas affected by the riots from the local population was enormous
And in some places violent but the special roving reputure made submitted the her report to the chair of the commission at Calicut on the 6th of November 2017
the commission further submitted its findings to the court the Honrable court communicated that he final verdict would be passed on the 20th of November 2017
Both Renjith and sanju were by now media darlings and were comfortable with the media glare that this case had bought in to their lives but behind it all both men were
Nervous wrecks on the impending final verdict of the case on the day of the verdict the both the parties were present at the court and the Honrable bench red out the verdict
