News4u-Special Feature by Sanjay Chatyurvedi-The irony of  Delayed justice made Uday Raj 33 years to be pronounced  with an imprisonment of  three months with a fine of Rs.5,000.  His mistake ? He was found preparing for a dacoity alongwith 10 other accomplices .  Some more interesting facts are yet to come. The judgement is pronounced by a FAST TRACK COURT , how fast lets not discuss. Another jolt, one of the co-accused is still awaiting a final disposal of his trial. Uday Raj is still found to be lucky for having admitted his crime, otherwise it could have taken some more years in the case coming to a decision.

Uday Raj on being pronounced with the judgment appealed to the court for leniency as he is already 65 years old.

The case started on April 18^th , 1977 when 11 persons were arrested by the police while they were planning for a dacoity.   The trial continued for almost 33 years. Uday Raj himself didn’t attend court proceedings on three-four occasions and was ultimately issued a non-bailable warrant (NBW).

Lastly, he absconded and was arrested on October 12 this year. Since then, he has been in jail. On November 11, the accused filed an application in the court confessing his guilt.

The above case once again has popped up the question of the mockery of the justice in the country. Is there any relevance of the judgment pronounced after 33 years of commiting the crime ? Will it make any difference to the person who has been facing trial for the last more than 30 years for the crime he did not commit ? Even if he has not attended the trials or have absconded is it worth to waste the precious time of the court and the hard earned money of the tax payers in feeding such criminals in jails only due to slow procedures of our legal system ? Even after so much of discussions and explanations, the legal system is going to its worst shapes instead of being improved with the help of latest techniques. With the talk of trials on web conferencing when we think of the cases like uday raj, can we think of the advancing the legal systems ?

Where courts are busy in attending the appeals of their lower ones, pronouncing the decisions on homosexuality and  other such issues far away from the scope of the courts, humanity somewhere is left buried below the bunch of files which no one dares to uncover or we can say do anyone wants to extract these files out unless some political issue is attached to it .

News4u-Sports Desk- Lalit -The Australian team has been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate during its nine-wicket victory over England in the first semi-final of the ICC Champions Trophy at Centurion on Friday.

Jeff Crowe of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees imposed the fines after Ricky Ponting’s side was found two overs short of its target at the end of the match when time allowances were taken into consideration.

According to the ICC Code of Conduct regulations governing over-rate penalties, players are fined five percent of their match fees for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time and the captain is fined double that amount.

Hence, Ponting was fined 20 percent of his match fee while his players received 10 percent fine.

The offence is contrary to Section J of the ICC Code of Conduct which relates to slow over-rates.

For such offences, the decision of the ICC match referee is final and binding.

News4u-Sports Desk-Bangladesh’s spinners continued to torment the West Indies’ batsman in an afternoon session truncated by the weather and left the home team scrambling on 192 for eight at tea in the second and final Test on Sunday.

At the break, Dave Bernard Jr was unbeaten on 61 and Tino Best was not out on four, after the Tigers’ spinners continued to apply the pressure on the West Indies batsmen and restricted the home team’s lead to 197 on the third day at the Queen’s Park Stadium Complex.

Shakib Al Hasan has been Bangladesh most successful bowler with four wickets for 61 runs from 22 overs, and fellow left-arm spinner Enamul Haque Jr has taken two for 42 from 15 overs.

But the Bangladeshis have found Bernard hard to dislodge, and the West Indies all-rounder reached 50 for the third time in the series, when he swung his 56th ball from Enamul over mid-wicket for his sixth four.

Play started after lunch an hour and 10 minutes later than scheduled because of rain before and during the interval.

When play resumed, the Bangladesh spinners wheeled away, and Bernard and Darren Sammy spent the first 40 minutes putting up their best defence.

But things became undone, when Enamul had Sammy caught at mid-wicket for 22 to trigger a decline which saw West Indies lose three wickets for 21 runs in the space of 43 balls.

Shakib, leading Bangladesh in the absence of the injured Mashrafe Mortaza, had Chadwick Walton caught at slip for one edging a loose drive at a wide ball before Shahadat Hossain returned for a second spell and had Ryan Austin caught in the mid-wicket region for three.

Rain had also prompted an early lunch and stalled Bangladesh’s progress, after their spinners, led by Shakib, bowled them back into contention, when they reduced West Indies to 124 for five at the interval.

The weather intervened about half-hour before the interval to set Bangladesh back in their efforts, after West Indies continued from their overnight total of 56 for one.

Shakib made the breakthrough in the eighth over of the morning, when left-handed opener Omar Phillips swung at a shortish delivery, and was caught at deep square leg for 29.

Four overs later, Shakib had Ryan Hinds caught at leg-slip for two, when the left-handed batsman gloved a sweep shot.

Off-spinner Mahmudullah, who has been the most successful bowler for Bangladesh in the series, then removed West Indies captain Floyd Reifer for three to a questionable lbw decision from New Zealand umpire Tony Hill.

Video replays suggested that Reifer was struck just outside the off-stump and the ball would have spun away from lanky left-hander.

Enamul Haque Jr then added to West Indies’ pain, when he scalped Travis Dowlin for 49 to an incredulous lbw verdict from Hill to leave West Indies 110 for five.

The TV replays again suggested that the batsman was struck just outside the off-stump and the ball would have spun away past the stumps. Bangladesh lead the two-Test series 1-0, after they won the opening Test which ended last Monday in St. Vincent by 95 runs.

The Tigers need only to draw the match to clinch their first-ever Test series victory overseas.
