Kochi: Shine Varghese, who has petitioned the High Court against Cardinal Mar George Alencherry in the controversial land deal in Ernakulam – Angamaly archdiocese, will again approach the court seeking action against the police for failing to comply with its order. A single bench of Justice Kemal Pasha had ordered the Ernakulam central police to register a case against the cardinal, but the police are yet to take any action. Hence, a contempt of court petition will be filed against the central police, the petitioner said.
The central police have already sought expert opinion from the advocate-general in registering an FIR against the cardinal. Based on the legal opinion, the police will finalise the sections of the IPC under which the FIR will be registered. Besides the cardinal, cases are to be registered against three others involved in the land deal. Meanwhile, Mr P.T. Thomas MLA has said that the state government was liable to implement the court order in the case.
