US judge drops Adani bribery case, questions Justice Department decision
A US judge on Monday dismissed criminal charges against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani but said the Justice Department's decision to abandon the fraud and bribery case was concerning. Brooklyn-based US District Judge Nicholas Garaufis granted federal prosecutors' request to dismiss the case after questioning their reasons for doing so, including whether Adani's November 2024 promise to invest $10 billion in the United States had influenced the decision. The Justice Department's decision was the latest instance in which federal prosecutors had sought to drop a high-profile white-collar criminal prosecution during Republican president Donald Trump's second term. Garaufis said he was satisfied that Adani's investment pledge had not influenced the decision to drop the charges. He also said judges had a limited role in reviewing federal prosecutors' decisions to dismiss charges. However, he criticised Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General Trent McCotter for working with Adani's defence lawyers to decide to dismiss the charges without input from prosecutors or agents who had investigated the case. The irregularities in the decision to dismiss the indictment are concerning, Garaufis wrote. McCotter appears to have eschewed the professional opinions of innumerable officials from various federal offices and replaced them with his singular judgment. A Justice Department spokesperson pointed to a July 4 filing in which McCotter said he decided to drop the charges after meeting with defence lawyers and other Justice Department lawyers and conducting his own research and analysis. In a statement posted on X, Gautam Adani said, I welcome the U.S. Court's decision with humility and deep respect for the judicial process. The judge said his dismissal of the case should not be interpreted as his agreement with the Justice Department's decision or as an opinion on the merits of the case. He asked the Justice Department to provide more information to help him decide whether to dismiss charges against additional defendants. Adani was charged in 2024 with agreeing to bribe Indian government officials so a subsidiary of Adani Group could win approval to develop a solar energy plant. He was also accused of misleading US investors by providing reassuring information about his company's anti-corruption practices. Adani Group has consistently denied wrongdoing. Adani himself has not appeared in a US court to respond to the charges. In the July 4 court filing, McCotter said the case was primarily foreign, hard to prove and inconsistent with the agency's current priorities. In a separate resolution to civil charges brought by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, Gautam Adani agreed to pay $6 million and his nephew, Sagar Adani, agreed to pay $12 million. Adani Enterprises Limited separately agreed to pay $275 million to the US Treasury Department to settle alleged violations of Iran sanctions. McCotter also denied in the filing what he called media stories suggesting he had sought to dismiss the case partly because of Adani's promise to invest in the United States. In a sworn declaration filed in court on July 15, Adani acknowledged that he had previously promised to invest $10 billion in the US. He said his lawyers told the Justice Department in meetings that the pledge might be part of a resolution of these matters. Robert Giuffra, a lawyer for Adani, said in a July 15 court declaration that the defendants had told the Justice Department the Adani Group was amenable to following through on Adani's investment pledge as part of a resolution to the case. Garaufis wrote that he took o position on the ultimate propriety of Mr. Giuffra's repeat attempts to resolve this bribery case with monetary offers. It is up to the public to decide what effect offers of this kind have on the equal administration of justice and the rule of law, the judge wrote. (With inputs from agencies)

Tarun Tejpal and the search for the
The Goa bench of the Bombay High Courts decision earlier this week convicting and sentencing for ten years of incarceration Tarun Tejpal, former editor of Tehelka magazine, of sexually assaulting a former colleague arrived as a reckoning of the victims thirteen years of a Sisyphean struggle through relentlessness, shaming and facing the regressive churn of our courts. In 2021, eight years after Tejpal was first accused of raping a junior colleague in the elevator of a Goa resort, abusing his position of authority, which he later confessed over email, framing the accusations as political slander, a Goa court in Mapusa had acquitted Tejpal. That judgment, which arrived after the Supreme Court initially dismissed his plea challenging the framing of charges, noting that the allegations were very serious, affecting the dignity of a woman, had seriously undermined how dignity of survivors must be maintained through the challenge of legal processes. Central to the Courts reasoning, at that time, was its conviction of what an ideal victim must look like noting that the prosecutrix, despite claiming to have suffered from shock and trauma, seemed too composed exiting the lift. She even, the Court noted, was seen smiling in photographs later on. The CCTV footage shows a change to the prosecutrixs narrative both of the physical circumstances of the moments and of her claims of distress, tears, trauma and resistance, it noted. That judgment, which allowed Tejpal the life of a free man for close to a decade, survives today as an important record of the Indian judiciarys horrific complicities in peddling misogynistic stereotypes against survivors, and its befuddled imagination of what constitutes consent. Writing in The Leaflet in 2021, Kavita Krishnan had noted , after an exhaustive deconstruction of the trial court orders many flaws: We need to reflect on how larger social and political discourses converge to treat the testimony by a feminist as a lie, as a conspiracy and as immoral. Judicial training of women in the bar on feminism in law is urgent to counteract this trend, for a feminist method is central to ensuring a fair trial for rape survivors. If the Tejpal verdict is allowed to stand, it will set a dangerous precedent for every rape case to come; and will intimidate and deter every rape survivor from seeking justice. Another important reading I was led to from that time was Disha Wadekars comment in EPW, locating the courts search for an ideal victim in the Tejpal case as being rooted, essentially, in Brahminical patriarchy. It asked in the end: How can our justice system safeguard the personhood guaranteed by the Constitution, when it appears to be borrowing from Brahminical patriarchal framework to assess the credibility of survivors? The judgment this week held that the standard of proof expected in such cases must take into account that such crimes are generally committed on the sly, and that direct evidence from a person other than the victim is very rarely available. In the process, it may have laid to rest the trial court orders problematic legacy. We have a deep-dive breakdown of the High Courts judgment this week. The perfect victim is a myth: How the Bombay High Court reversed Tarun Tejpals acquittal Justice Liberhans complicated legacy The Liberhan Commissions difficult legacy Earlier this week, retired Justice Manmohan Singh Liberhan passed away at the age of 87. The Liberhan Commission, which he led, submitted its report after seventeen years, in 2009, finding that the Babri mosques demolition was a carefully orchestrated conspiracy, and holding cadres and leadership of the RSS and BJP guilty. But as historian V. Krishna Ananth argues in The Leaflet this week, this is perhaps an oversimplified understanding of the Liberhan report. It is far less discussed that the report failed to recognise the accountability of the Union government in the events leading up to the demolition, apportioned blame upon Muslims for being led by fanatic leaders, and helped establish the logic that the dispute, arising from a brutal demolition, was something to be negotiated between the communities, Ananth writes, In some ways, it paved the logic of how constitutional courts, in later years, would frame and eventually dispose of the issue.

Instead each story ambles along at the pace of an old colleague telling you something over a cup of chai in the corridor outside a courtroom, waiting for a matter to be called.
