Injuries on Nadia could be due to liver failure and blood clotting 2010-06-14 In a new development that could be a major blow to the on-going police investigation and bring a measure of relief to the absent Mickky Pacheco, doctors like Dr Oscar Rebello and Dr Smokin' Gun Shekar Salkar, both highly respected medicos, agree that when it comes to liver failure, bleeding and clotting does take place at random parts of the body which end up looking like contusions or injuries. The injuries may not have been caused by a physical assault. So whispers of murder may be stilled, while MIckky will just have to battle with Section 306 which is abetment to suicide. QUESTION: Why is Dr. O so concerned to have Paeheco acquited of any wrong doing, or is only the murder part? High drama in High Court over Lyndon's bail application 2010-06-14 The anticipatory bail hearing of Lyndon Monteiro has been adjourned to June 17, 2010 where the Judge U. D. Salvi directed Lyndon Monteiro to be present in person in court on June 17. There was high drama in Court 3 of the Goa Bench of the Bombay High Court today when instead of the two opposing counsels Adv Aires Rodrigues hijacked the proceedings. This was the anticipatory bail hearing of Lyndon Monteiro OSD to ex-Tourism Minister Mickky Pacheco. Both gentlemen are on the run since they are accused in Nadia Torrado's death. When the matter came up for hearing there was a brief delay as the prosecution's senior counsel had not yet entered the court. The matter was kept pending until he arrived and when it was taken up again, along with Lyndon Monteiro's lawyer Adv Amit Palekar, and the prosecution, Advocate Aires Rodrigues stood up and asked permission to speak. Monteiro's counsel attempted to silence him, but Aires bab was in full flow. He practically repeated verbatim the comment he had sent *TARGET GOA* just yesterday, telling the judge that the manner in which the bail application was filed was a fraud on the Court. The public prosecutor also said that his written statement pointed out to the exact same thing that Adv. Aires was pointing out and requested that the judge take an immediate decsion. Pointing out to Justice Salvi that Lyndon’s anticipatory bail application was filed by his mother, Adv. Rodrigues told the Court that the provisions of law and High Court rules mandates that an anticipatory bail application can be filed under Section 438 of the Criminal Procedure Code only by the person anticipating arrest. Adv. Rodrigues also informed Justice Salvi of a judgment passed by Justice Gustavo Filipe Couto of the Bombay High Court on 11th December 1986 ruling that an anticipatory bail could be filed only by the accused and not by his lawyer, family or friend. Adv Rodrigues said that there cannot be one rule for the common man which is waived for the rich and the powerful. Lyndon's anticipatory bail application, Adv Rodrigues pointed out had been wrongly styled as an application under Section 439 of Criminal Procedure Code to mislead the Court registry into registering the application. We presume someone in the registry is going to get a memo from the Judge Salvi. An application under Section 439 is by someone already in custody and can be moved by a family or friend on behalf of the accused. Agreeing with Adv. Aires Rodrigues, Justice Salvi told Adv. Amit Palekar appearing on behalf of Lyndon Monteiro that it was very clear that the anticipatory bail application was not in accordance with the rules. While Adv. Palekar told the Court that he would take instructions whether to withdraw the anticipatory bail application, Justice Salvi adjourned the matter to June 17th with directions that Lyndon Monteiro be present in person on for that hearing . -- DEV BOREM KORUM Gabe Menezes.
