Dr Nowhera Shaik’s case gained everyone’s attention when Dr.Nowhera Shaik got involved in the case. Later when the Telangana High Court granted her bail , this moment was celebrated as an initial victory by the supporters of Dr Nowhera Shaik and Heera Group. Not only the court granted bail but also made a huge decision by handing over the investigation to Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO). The court also ordered other agencies like the ED to stop investigating upon Dr Nowhera Shaik case.
ED’s Misconduct
Even after clear instructions from the Telangana High Court, ED continued to involve itself in the case. On August 16, 2019, before the bail was granted, the ED issued a provisional attachment order against Dr.Nowhera Shaik. Rather than transferring the case to SFIO by obeying the court’s order ED still continued to do its own investigation and even did a raid on Dr.Nowhera Shaik seized her properties and also Heera Group employees were raided by ED.
Even after the strict order of the Supreme court and Telangana High court restricting other agencies from investigating the case. Still ED seized cash , properties of Dr.Nowhera Shaik , assests and documents.
Petition Filed On ED
The petition filed by Dr Nowhera Shaik clearly points how ED has been manipulating the case , and clearly not following the Supreme court’s order. Also petition states how ED has been taken controversial action on Dr Nowhera Shaik by seizing her properties , cash , assests and important documents. ED is also accused of doing Raid on Heera Group employees without the court’s concern on it.
ED’s ongoing action or can be said controversial actions has hindered the judicial justice. The petition aims to get justice Dr Nowhera Shaik has been kept away from justice te main reason can be the manipulation of case by ED. Clearly violating of court’s order can be seen. Legal steps should be taken upon ED contempt of court is not enough.
Supreme Court’s Verdict
On March 28, 2023, the Supreme Court addressed investor claims and allowed the purchasers to deposit approximately Rs. 641 crores. The court ordered that, after the deposit, the ED’s attachment on the property would be lifted. However, the ED’s actions violated this order. The ED failed to prevent encroachment on the attached property, which was intended to repay investors.
The Supreme Court has been clear in its verdict regarding the Dr Nowhera Shaik case and has criticized the ED for its failure to follow to these orders. The ongoing legal proceedings and the ED’s actions are subject to further scrutiny to ensure that justice is served and that the court’s authority is respected. The Court’s main concern remains the protection of investor claims and the proper handling of the case as directed by the Supreme Court and High Court orders but ED fails.
Illegal Attachment & Seizure
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is also accused of conducting a raid on Dr.Nowhera Shaik’s properties and those of her associates also and even the the employees of Heera Group. This raid reportedly occurred despite the Supreme Court and Telangana High Court’s orders restricting other agencies from investigating the case. The ED’s actions reportedly involved the seizure of assets, cash, and documents, which Dr.Nowhera Shaik claims were in violation of the court orders and the provisions of the PMLA.
Conclusion
Dr. Nowhera Shaik should get justice based on the Supreme Court’s clear order’s and the High Court’s orders. The continued disobedience of these orders by the ED weaken the legal process and obstructs justice. For Dr Nowhera Shaik to get justice a fair investigation, it is essential that the Supreme Court’s decisions be respected and enforced, ensuring that all involved parties follow to the judicial instructions and that Dr Nowhera Shaik’s rights are fully protected.
