The Bombay High Court (HC) has expressed its surprise over the "lackadaisical and lethargic manner" in which an attempt to murder and dacoity case was being handled by the police in Badlapur in Thane district and said it was a "mockery of the criminal justice system".
A division bench of Justices A S Gadkari and Neela Gokhale, in its order of August 23, said the offences of attempt to murder and dacoity were serious in nature and against the society at large and, hence, have to be probed properly.
