[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 116931, member: 35"] [b]Re: Tankhah Against Ragi Issued[/b] [COLOR=Blue]A bit of an answer to my own question. Closed meetings can be prone to violence. The perfect victim can be the truth. With a secret meeting no one even knows if a meeting took place. [/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Here is part of an article by IJ Singh - I just received it minutes ago for uploading - which I will do. But the problem with closed meeetings...[/COLOR] from [B]Let There Be Light[/B] [B]<small>by I.J. SINGH</small>[/B] There appear to be many procedural failures that one can question in the case of Professor Darshan Singh. The latest, dating from just a few days ago, highlights a lesson that should not be ignored and would be child's play to fix. On Saturday, December 5, 2009, The Akal Takht found Darshan Singh guilty of the charges against him. But the trial never really happened! According to The Akal Takht, Darshan Singh had been summoned but he did not appear on the stipulated date of the trial. In a sense then, he was sentenced in absentia on the charges. I know that sometimes in legal proceedings this is the only option when the accused flees the jurisdiction of the court. Prof. Darshan Singh claims that he was present at the stipulated venue, The Akal Takht, at the scheduled date and time, and the press as well as the sangat was witness to that. He avers that he waited an hour or so and then left. It seems the Jathedars wanted him to appear for a trial [I]in camera - [/I]that is, behind closed doors, with no press or members of the public present; effectively, a secret trial! - while he wanted an open trial so that the world wide Sikh community could watch the legal proceedings against him. ["[I]In camera[/I]" is a legal term used for closed trials in situations where, for example, national security is at risk. The term, a Latin phrase, has nothing to do with cameras.] A press release from the Jathedars confirms that their hearings are now routinely held [I]in camera[/I] as of the past nearly ten years. Prior to that date all hearings were public - in an open setting. That is, open to the public, open to the press. This makes we wonder. Why on earth would one move towards secret hearings and trials? Why was the open policy changed to secret trials ten years ago?
