Setting a precedent
My case will set a precedent.
When I started my action I was told by a number of my
friends that my case will be thrown out because I do not have locus standi
(Legal Standing).
The respondent (the lawyer I complained about) also said
that I was not an interested party and therefore the case should be thrown out.
My contention is that every civic conscious citizen not only
has a right but a duty to complain to the respective authorities when he has
seen a crime committed.
Telling lies in an affidavit is a criminal offence and I
happened to see lies in an affidavit filed in court.
I am not a party to that affidavit and neither is my name mentioned anywhere in the affidavit.
Having seen the affidavit
and knowing there are lies in the affidavit I believe I not only have a right have a duty to complain
and that is what I did.
This will be another chapter to add to my upcoming book ‘I
made it happen and not let it happen.’
