संभल हिंसा में CO Anuj Chaudhry पर FIR के आदेश देने वाले जज का तबादला

This video from The Red Mike, hosted by Saurabh Shukla, discusses a controversial judicial development following the Sambhal violence of November 2024. It focuses on the transfer of a judge who ordered an FIR against high-ranking police officials, contrasting this with the promotion of another judge involved in the same broader conflict. The report raises critical questions about judicial independence and the repercussions of delivering "bold" judgments against the state machinery in the current socio-political climate of Uttar Pradesh.

Video Summary and Segment Breakdown
[00:00:00 - 00:02:00] Context of the Sambhal Violence and the FIR Order
The segment recalls the November 2024 violence in Sambhal where five people died. While police claimed the deaths resulted from crossfire among the mob, a survivor named Alam (a street vendor) moved the court. Alam alleged he saw ASP Anuj Kumar Chaudhary ordering the police to open fire, leading to his own injuries (three bullet wounds). On January 9, CJM Vibhanshu Sudhir of the Sambhal Court observed that a prima facie case of crime existed and ordered an FIR against Anuj Chaudhary and other police personnel.

[00:02:00 - 00:04:30] The Transfer of Judge Vibhanshu Sudhir
Shortly after ordering the FIR, CJM Vibhanshu Sudhir was transferred from Sambhal to Sultanpur. Crucially, while his grade remains similar, he has been moved from the powerful position of Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) to Civil Judge (Senior Division). The host highlights that a CJM holds significant administrative and judicial authority, making this move appear like a "demotion" in terms of influence and posting quality.

[00:04:30 - 00:06:15] Comparison with the Promotion of Judge Aditya Singh
In a striking contrast, the video notes that Aditya Singh, the Civil Judge who originally ordered the controversial survey of the Sambhal Shahi Jama Masjid (which triggered the initial tensions), has been promoted to take Vibhanshu Sudhir’s place as the new CJM of Sambhal. The host points out the optics of these simultaneous moves: one judge is moved out after acting against the police, while the other is elevated after a pro-survey ruling.

[00:06:15 - 00:09:30] Details of the Legal Battle and Police Resistance
The survivor, Alam, had initially approached the DIG and the Chief Minister’s office for justice but was ignored. After a year-long legal battle in the Sambhal court, he secured the order for an FIR. However, Sambhal SP Krishan Bishnoi publicly stated that the police would not register the FIR, citing a prior judicial inquiry and their intent to seek a stay from the Allahabad High Court.

[00:09:30 - 00:11:48] Conclusion: Implications for Judicial Courage
Saurabh concludes by reflecting on the impact of such transfers. He notes that while the High Court has the authority to transfer judges, doing so immediately after a bold ruling against the police sends a discouraging signal to other lower-court judges. He emphasizes that for a democracy to function, the judiciary must be "broad-shouldered" enough to handle criticism and protect those who seek justice against the powerful.

Conclusion
The report serves as a somber reflection on the challenges faced by the lower judiciary in India. By highlighting the "reward and punishment" pattern seemingly visible in these transfers, Saurabh Shukla underscores a growing concern: that judicial officers who hold the state accountable may face administrative displacement, potentially chilling the spirit of independent justice in sensitive regions.
