In the annals of India’s judiciary, few cases spotlight systemic decay like the Kafkaesque ordeal unfolding in Kerala’s courts. In a chilling blend of judicial neglect and bureaucratic cover-up, courts — including the Hon’ble High Court of Kerala — repeatedly upheld a fraudulent police report filed by a Sub Inspector notorious for corruption, while turning a blind eye to legitimate documentary evidence and foreign rulings in favor of the complainant.

The complainant, an NRI businessman, armed with international judgments and original business documents, sought relief in 2009, demanding that the case be transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation. What followed was a tragicomic theatre of judicial irresponsibility. The Sub Inspector filed a baseless report — unaccompanied by a single shred of proof — and even claimed a false conviction abroad.

Courts did not question the lack of documentation. Instead, they echoed the SI’s fiction, ignoring RTI pleas and, when pressed, excused the missing documents as "eaten by termites." This farcical excuse was accepted without resistance.

In 2012, a flicker of justice returned when a magistrate initiated criminal proceedings under IPC Sections 403, 406, and 420. But once again, the system twisted back upon itself. The accused vanished, only to re-emerge with a High Court order quashing the proceedings. A subsequent judge then reaffirmed the very police report that had earlier been discredited.

The final blow came when a magistrate declared the complainant dishonest — contradicting previous judicial findings — and dismissed the matter entirely. The result: a judicial system that validates lies, suppresses evidence, and blames ants for institutional failure.

This case demands a systemic review. For a justice system that cites termites in lieu of truth has ceased to serve the people. ..."FULL TEXT: HOW A NEGLECTED FILE SYMBOLIZED A BROADER DECAY IN COURTS"
