Death sentence clause in SC/ST Act valid? Top court to examine
Tuesday, 14 May 2024 The Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to review the constitutionality of a provision of the SC & ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 that requires the imposition of capital punishment on a person if false and fabricated evidence provided by him leads to the conviction, imposition of the death penalty, and execution of a SC/ST community member.
The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to fire whistleblower chief Hampton Dellinger. The Biden appointee will remain in his post at least until Feb. 26 as legal proceedings continue. Liberal justices opposed the firing, while conservative justices dissented, arguing the court overstepped. This marks the first Supreme Court challenge to Trump’s removals.
