Sakshi reports on the plight of Ajay TG, a film-maker and human-rights activist who has been detained by the Chhattisgarh police.
Few days before he was arrested, Ajay was making a film on another activist Dr Binayak Sen (General Secretary, Chhattisgarh PUCL and like Ajay detained by the State Police since May 2007) and happened to enter the courtroom in which Sen was being tried with a penknife, that he didn’t even remember he had in his rucksack. He of course issued a formal apology to the court, calling it a human error, and the court forgave him. Nonetheless, the next day, papers carried stories of the filmmaker having carried a ‘modern and deadly weapon’ into the court of law!
