Court shocked by rule allowing civil society groups to stop vehicles, seize animals

New Delhi:
The Supreme Court on Friday asked the Rajasthan government to come clean about its investigation into the July 20 Alwar lynching case in which the victim, Rakbar Khan, died of injuries while police officers allegedly took time off to herd his cows to a gaushala before taking him to hospital.

The incident took place just days after the Supreme Court, on July 17, condemned the frequency of lynching, calling it “horrendous acts of mobocracy” by cow vigilantes. Senior advocate Indira Jaising, for activist Tehseen Poonawalla, submitted before a Bench, led by Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra, that no charge sheet was filed and departmental action had come to a stop with the transfer of three constables.

Rule 3 questioned

Ms. Jaising also drew the Bench’s attention to Rule 3 in the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Establishment & Regulation of Societies for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) Rules, 2001, which empowered “civil society groups” to protect animals. She said Rule 3, in fact, provided State accreditation to cow vigilantism.
