Delhi Police have registered a case in this regard and have started an investigation after beefing up the security of Justice Dipak Misra . A three-judge bench of Justice Dipak Misra, Justice Prafulla Pant and Justice Amitava Roy, rejected a final plea, clearing the ground for his execution.
“Issuance of death warrants by the TADA court against Yakub on April 30 and scheduling his execution for July 30 is in order,” a bench of Justices Dipak Misra, P C Pant and Amitava Roy said, just a day after Justice Kurian Joseph and the activism of a small group seemed to have opened a window of hope for Yakub, who has been found guilty of complicity in the terrorist violence which claimed 257 lives.
A two-judge bench of Justices A R Dave and Kurian Joseph had on last Tuesday returned a split verdict. Justice Joseph had said there was procedural impropriety in dismissal of the curative petition filed by Yakub, who had sought reconsideration of the March 21, 2013 judgment awarding death penalty only to him.
According to reports, intelligence agencies have received inputs regarding a heightened threat to Supreme Court judges who rejected the mercy petition of Yakub Memon, who was hanged in Nagpur Central jail early Thursday. Security forces have been directed to provide full security cover to the judges at their residences and also while they are on move.
