JNUTA to hold ‘public hearing’ on Afzal Guru row probe panel

JNU Teachers’ Association, which was critical of the university’s high level committee enquiring into the controversial February 9 event, is organising a “public hearing” to reflect upon the investigation process.

A panel including Justice (Retd) AP Shah, former Chief Justice of the Delhi High Court and Chairman of the Twentieth Law Commission; Warisha Farasat, Delhi-based lawyer previously with the International Center for Transitional Justice, New York, and Centre for Equity Studies, Delhi and Mrinal Satish, Associate Professor at National Law University Delhi, will ponder over the enquiry process and its findings on Tuesday. 

The event is being organised at the administration block which has been the venue of protest ever since Kanhaiya Kumar was arrested in connection with an event on campus against hanging of Afzal Guru.
