Judge pens poem while sentencing murder convicts; verdict in UP lawyer murder case after 6 and a half years

News Topical, Digital Desk : While writing the sentence order for the culprits in the Advocate Samir Saifi murder case, the pain of the lawyers also came to light through the pen of Additional District and Sessions Judge (FTC-3) Ravi Kumar Diwakar.

He not only expressed his anguish over the premature ending of the dreams of young advocate Sameer, but also termed the incident as an attack on the rule of law.

On Monday, when Judge Ravi Kumar Diwakar pronounced the sentence in the case, it was filled with anguish from the lawyers, as 28-year-old advocate Mohammad Sameer Saifi was murdered in 2019.

"It's not an attack on the lawyer, it's an attack on the institution."

The judge wrote in the order that this was not merely an attack on a lawyer, but an attack on an institution and a direct challenge to it. Lawyers serve as guardians of justice, democracy, and constitutional values ​​in society, and are therefore also called sentinels of justice.

They play a vital role in protecting fundamental rights, providing legal aid to vulnerable groups, and upholding the rule of law. Attacking an advocate is a direct attack on the smooth functioning of the judiciary and the rule of law.

Judicial independence and security are seriously threatened, as lawyers are the foundation of the justice system. Incidents like the murder of Advocate Samir Saifi send a message of fear, anarchy, and disillusionment with the justice system. They demonstrate that criminals are impunity and the law has lost its force.

Soft justice in the murder of young lawyer Sameer Saifi would send a very wrong message to society. Sameer hadn't even seen life properly yet. He was moving forward with his dreams, and suddenly everything was gone.
