Additional District Judge Ravi Kumar Diwakar, based in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, has had 97 pending criminal cases withdrawn from his court by the District Judge. This decision follows a period in which Judge Diwakar handed down death sentences to 22 individuals across 10 separate criminal cases over the past four months.
While the judge issued these capital sentences, legal protocol dictates that such punishments cannot be executed without formal confirmation from the High Court.
