Judge Ravi Kumar Diwakar, who awarded 23 death sentences in six months and 13 more during an earlier posting, has been transferred from a fast track court to a family court in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh. His tenure also drew attention over the recall of 97 pending criminal case files and his earlier involvement in the Gyanvapi mosque survey case.
