Justice M Nagaprasanna stayed the cases against the doctor, a resident of Mylasandra, and questioned the Bengaluru Police for registering criminal cases against him after he had alerted officials about the presence of suspected illegal immigrants.
Soon after, FIRs were registered against the doctor at Bellandur and Varthur police stations following complaints alleging that he had assaulted them.
It is high time that the system stops supporting illegal immigrants, that too by registering crimes against persons of the city who only had shown such people as illegal immigrants,” Justice Nagaprasanna said in his order, reports Deccan Herald.
Finding that the material placed before it indicated a possible abuse of the criminal process, the High Court stayed further proceedings against the doctor until further orders.
The Court directed that the FRRO be impleaded as a respondent and asked it to place instructions regarding the status of the alleged illegal immigrants before the Court.
