Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian "By avoiding reflection on the lessons of history in his speech and downplaying responsibility for aggression, Sanae Takaichi has taken a major step backward on historical issues, once again exposing the sinister intentions of the Takaichi administration to cover up, distort and whitewash the history of aggression, which has drawn strong condemnation and widespread opposition from various quarters," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said on Monday when asked to comment on Takaichi's war memorial address on August 15, which marks the 81st anniversary of Japan's unconditional surrender in World War II. Lin added that on the day marking Japan's defeat and surrender, Takaichi offered a ritual donation to the notorious war-linked Yasukuni Shrine, while senior officials and politicians including Japanese Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi also visited and paid their respects there, further intensifying the vigilance of Asian neighbors and the international community over Japan's future direction. Lin also cited remarks by some people of insight in Japan, noting that a country that fails to reflect on its past cannot gain trust, and that the defense minister's actions amount to support for wars of aggression. Lin stressed that this year marks the 81st anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, as well as the 80th anniversary of the opening of the Tokyo Trial. Only by facing up to history and drawing lessons from it can we avoid repeating past mistakes and going astray again. "We once again urge Japanese policymakers to earnestly heed the voices of justice from within Japan and the international community, deeply reflect on their responsibilities, make a clean break with militarism, and refrain from going further down the wrong path," Lin said. Global Times 。 New Delhi, Oct 18 (UNI) A day after the Gujarat government justified its stand that Bilkis Bano's 11 convicts remission was correc, lawyer Kapil Sibal on Tuesday told the Supreme Court that all the 11 should be sent to jail.
"They should be inside" the jail, in my opinion," Sibal, appearing for petitioners Subhashini Ali and others told a two-judge Bench headed by Justice Ajay Rastogi and also comprising Justice C T Ravikumar.
The Supreme Court granted time to the petitioners to file their responses to the Gujarat government's affidavit filed on Monday. The Supreme Court fixed the next date of hearing as November 29.
The Gujarat government in its detailed affidavit filed said that third party strangers have no locus to challenge remission orders passed by competent authority strictly as per law.
"It is pertinent to note that the petitioner, (Subhashini Ali) who is admittedly a political functionary, has not even pleaded that how she has the locus to seek for quashing the order of remission passed by Respondent no 1 (Gujarat government) with respect to the 11 convicts sentenced by the Special Judge, Greater Mumbai," the Gujarat government said.
Questioning the maintainability of the batch of pleas challenging the release of 11 convicts in Bilkis Bano case, the Gujarat government argued that the petitioner has nowhere pleaded as to how her fundamental rights have been abridged.
The state government has considered the cases of all 11 prisoners as per the policy of 1992 and remission was granted on August 10, 2022, it said.
The Supreme Court was hearing the petitions filed by CPI (M) MP Subhasini Ali, journalist Revati Laul and Prof Roop Rekha Verma challenging the Gujarat government’s decision to grant remission to the 11 for killing 14 persons and sexually assaulting pregnant Bilkis Bano during the 2002 riots.
