The bench of Justice PN Deshmukh and Justice RB Deo of Nagpur has finally look into the petition filed by advocate Satish Uke that alleged that the Judge BH Loya, who was presiding over the Sohrabuddin trial, was poisoned with a radioactive isotope.
Earlier three judges Justices SB Shukre, SM Modak and Swapna Joshi had refused to look into in this matter and they saved themselves. The reason for their decision of escaping was not recorded, however, as all three judges were in Nagpur at the time of Judge Loya's death to attend the wedding of Justice Swapna Joshi's daughter. Justice Shukre had also stated in an interview with a newspaper that there was nothing suspicious about Judge Loay's death.
According to the petition, BJP president Amit Shah had met Ratan Kumar Sinha, then Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, during Shah's visit to Nagpur in March 2015 for three days.
Uke also said he had spoken to Judge Loya in a video call after his colleagues Shrikant Khandalkar and Prakash Thombre informed him that the judge wanted to talk to him. Later, both Khandalkar and Thombre died under mysterious circumstances. The court allowed the petitioner to amend his petition and posted the matter for further hearing after two weeks.
