Ref: Corruption Complaint against Delhi High Court Judge V K Shali in
connection with Whistle-blower corruption and right to life Writ
Petition pending in the Delhi High Court since February 2012 – Writ
Petition (Civil) 1280/ 2012 (Seema Sapra v General Electric Company
and Others) and the connected matter OMP 647 of 2012 AND corruption
complaint against Judge G S Sistani and Judge A K Pathak for
deliberately endangering the life of whistle-blower Seema Sapra AND
complaint of immediate threat to the life of whistle-blower Seema
Sapra, who is a crucial witness in the corruption complaints that are
the subject matter of WP Civil 1280 of 2012.



WP Civil 1280 of 2012 is a corruption whistle-blower petition filed by
me against the Railway Ministry and General Electric Company in the
Delhi High Court in February 2012. In July 2012, GE India Industrial
Private Limited filed OMP 647 of 2012 fraudulently attempting to seek
an injunction against me from disclosing allegedly "confidential
information" which is evidence in my corruption petition and
complaints and which already forms part of the public court record in
WP Civil 1280 of 2012. OMP 647 of 2012 did not disclose the existence
and nature of the writ petition, was filed without a valid vakalatnama
and sought to mislead the court and obtain an injunction by committing
fraud on the court and with the sole intent to interfere with the
administration of justice in WP Civil 1280 of 2012.

Both WP Civil 1280 of 2012 and OMP 647 of 2012 remain pending before
the Delhi High Court, the former before a Division Bench and the
latter before a Single Bench.

On 29 April 2014, WP Civil 1280 of 2012 was listed before Judge V K
Shali and Judge G P Mittal. Judge V K Shali recused because his wife
holds shares of BHEL which is respondent 17 in this matter and which
was/ is a joint venture partner of General Electric in its tainted
tender bid and therefore would be adversely affected by the grant of
the relief sought in this petition. Though the order dictated in Court
on 29 April 2014 stated that only Judge V K Shali was recusing and the
reason discussed in Court was his wife's shareholding in BHEL, the
typed and signed order stated that the matter be placed before a
different Bench, thereby implying that both Judge V K Shali and Judge
G P Mittal had recused. This is the interpretation that listing
Registrar Lorren Bamniyal placed on the signed order dated 29 April
2014.

On 12 May 2014, OMP 647 of 2012 was listed before Judge V K Shali. I
informed him that he had recused from a connected matter and that
therefore he ought not to hear OMP 647 of 2012.

Judge V K Shali asked me which Bench was seized of WP Civil 1280 of
2012. I replied that it was scheduled to go before a new Bench after
marking by the Chief Justice of the High Court. [WP Civil 1280 of 2012
had been listed before Judge G S Sistani and Judge V K Rao on 8 May
204, when Judge V K Rao recused because of his close ties to Judge A K
Sikri (against whom relief has been sought by me in an application
pending in WP Civil 1280 of 2012) and because Mr Vikram Dhokalia who
is appearing in the matter for Respondent 16 does not appear before
Judge V K Rao. On 8 May 2014, WP Civil 1280 of 2012 was therefore
adjourned to 15 May 2014 to be listed before a new Bench.]

Judge V K Shali dictated the order in OMP 647 of 2012 on 12 May 2014
stating that I had informed him that OMP 647 of 2012 was connected to
WP Civil 1280 of 2012 and that therefore OMP 647 of 2012 be placed
before another Bench. He recorded Mr Nanju Ganpathy's statement that
the two matters were not connected. Judge V K Shali then directed
that OMP 647 of 2012 be placed in Court before the Judge in charge of
the Original side on 28 May 2014 to determine whether OMP 647 of 2012
should be placed for hearing along with WP 1280 of 2012. I asked Judge
Shali after he dictated this direction if OMP 647 of 2012 which was a
single Bench matter could be heard by a Division Bench which was
hearing WP 1280 of 2012, to which Judge Shali replied that he did not
know and that I should ask the Court on the next date. I also stated
in court that it might be a good idea for OMP 647 of 2012 to be heard
along with WP 1280 of 2012.

After the matter was over, I thought about this issue and even
discussed it outside court with some lawyers. I had not formed a
definite view on whether or not I would press for OMP 647 of 2012 to
be heard along with WP 1280 of 2012 as this would result in me losing
one right of appeal as far as the OMP was concerned. I was planning to
mull over this issue and decide what position to adopt on this issue
before the next date of hearing in the OMP.

On 20 May 2014, I downloaded the typed and signed order dated 12 May
2014 passed in OMP 647 of 2012 from the website of the Delhi High
Court. This is reproduced below:

  1. The respondent is present in person and she states that the present
  matter is connected with W.P(C) No.1280/2012 which is already sent to the
  Hon'ble Chief Justice for constitution of a new Bench by this Court and,
  therefore, this mater be also transferred to be heard along with the said
  writ petition. However, the learned counsel for the petitioner opposes
  the request made and states that the present matter is not in any manner
  is connected with the said writ petition.

  2. Be that as it may, subject to orders of Hon'ble the Judge In-charge
  (Original Side), place the matter before another Bench on 28.5.2014.

To my shock, I found that the typed and signed order is entirely
different from the order that was dictated by Judge V K Shali in open
Court on 12 May 2014. The typed and signed order wrongly records that
I requested the court that OMP 647 of 2012 be transferred to be heard
along with WP Civil 1280 of 2012. On the contrary, this was a suo moto
suggestion by Judge V K Shali. The typed and signed order also wrongly
records that the matter be simply placed before a different Bench. The
order dictated by Judge V K Shali in court on 12 May 2014 clearly
stated that the matter be placed before the Judge in charge on 28 May
2014 for consideration as to whether OMP 647 of 2012 should be heard
along with WP Civil 1280 of 2012.

It is clear that Judge V K Shali substantively modified his order to
change its meaning and effect after he had dictated it in open court.
The Civil Procedure Code does not permit a Judge from modifying his
order in this manner. It is also clear that the modifications made to
the order after it was dictated appear to incorporate General
Electric's preferred position that OMP 647 of 2012 not be heard along
with WP 1280 of 2012.

I ask why Judge V K Shali modified his order dated 12 May 2014 in this
manner outside court. I ask what date was the order typed out and on
what date did Judge V K Shali actually make these changes to his order
and on what date did Judge V K Shali actually sign this order?

I have earlier pointed out that the order passed by Judge V K Shali
and Judge G P Mittal in WP Civil 1280 of 2012 on 29 April 2014 was
also modified outside court after it had been dictated in court.

I apprehend that Judge V K Shali was approached on behalf of General
Electric after 29 April 2014 and after the hearing in OMP 647 of 2012
on 12 May 2014 and he was prevailed upon to modify the two orders.

This is a matter of grave seriousness as my life is in imminent danger
as a result of my whistleblower complaints against General Electric
Company which also implicate Montek Singh Ahluwalia and the outgoing
Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh.

I reproduce below my statement to the court as recorded in the order
passed in WP Civil 1280 of 2012 on 22 April 2014.

Today the petitioner, who appears in person, states as follows:

"I have claimed a grave threat to my life from the State including
the police. I have informed this Court in writing that since January
2014. I have been sleeping in my car outside Gate No.8 of the Delhi
High Court. I have also been informing this Court in writing and
through affidavits filed in this matter that the police has failed to
comply with the protection orders issued by this Court; and that I am
not only being harassed and targeted with police complicity during the
night but I am also being poisoned by deliberate exposure to toxic
chemical, including nerve agents and organophosphates, during the
night. I fear for my life. I have been waking up breathless during the
night on account of such poisoning, and I apprehend that if this
continues, it will result in cessation of breathing and will cause
death; and I further apprehend that the police will then be used to
cover up such murder. I have been making police complaints about these
incidents since January 2014 in writing but the police has failed to
even respond to these complaints. In view of this, I am making an oral
request to this Hon'ble Court that it issue the directions to the
Registrar General of this Court; to the Delhi Police Commissioner; and
to the local SHO; to ensure that the CCTV security camera recordings
maintained both by the Court and by the police in the area where I am
parking my car at night and along the roads leading to that spot; be
preserved, because this will be valuable evidence in support of my
complaints to the police. I have been informed by the Delhi Police
security that such recordings are normally preserved only for a month.

I am, therefore, seeking directions from this Court that these
recordings be preserved for longer than that until my complaints are
addressed and investigated. I am also submitting that such an order
will also result in providing me some measure of protection because
those harming me, including the police, will get the message that the
evidence of what is going on around my car during the night is being
preserved pursuant to the directions of this Court. This is my request
orally.

Further, I have also requested the Hon'ble Court to direct the
Registrar General to preserve CCTV footage from the three court
lobbies today because I noticed that a policeman was instructing two
other policemen to target me; and CCTV footage might provide evidence
of contact between the General Electric lawyers and those policemen.
Further, one Sub Inspector Umed Singh from Police Station Nizamuddin,
who is present in Court, was also seen by me speaking with General
Electric lawyers outside the Court."

We have recorded the above verbatim so that there may be no doubt
about the submissions of the petitioner, who also happens to be a
qualified and practicing Advocate registered at the Bar.

This matter has been pending for some time. There is extensive
controversy raised by the petitioner on almost every aspect of the
matter. Apparently, she is also making serious allegations against the
respondents including the Police Authorities to the extent of alleging
a deliberate intent to murder her in a premeditated conspiracy.

Under the circumstances, it is open to the petitioner to file an
appropriate application seeking specific reliefs so that an
appropriate response can also be obtained from the concerned
respondents on every allegation made by the petitioner. As and when
such an application is moved, the same shall be duly considered by
this Court.

We have now invited the petitioner to continue where she left off on
the previous date of hearing.

We have heard the petitioner from 3:50 PM to 5:31 PM.

Re-notify on 24.04.2014 at 3:30 PM.

On 15 May 2014, WP Civil 1280 of 2012 was listed before Judge G S
Sistani and Judge A K Pathak. On that date, without hearing the matter
and ignoring my repeated requests that I needed immediate orders for
protection, Judge Sistani and Judge Pathak adjourned this matter to 18
July 2014. I informed these judges that I was being poisoned and that
I was being forced to sleep in my car, but these Judges refused to
provide me a hearing and adjourned the matter for over two months.
Delhi High Court Judges G S Sistani and A K Pathak have corruptly
adjourned WP Civil 1280 of 2012 to 18 July 2014 and are participating
in the conspiracy to eliminate me so that my corruption complaints
against GE and Montek Ahluwalia can be covered up.

I am being forced to sleep in my car since February 2013 as I was
deliberately made homeless as part of the ongoing conspiracy to
eliminate me and I am being poisoned since November 2013 on an almost
daily basis by being repeatedly exposed to chemical poisons at night
and during the day (wherever I go) including on Delhi High Court
premises. I fear for my life as such chronic poisoning will ultimately
cause death. Further, exposure to nerve agents and chemical agents at
night while I am asleep can prove fatal any time.

There is evidence (including medical records) available on the court
record in WP Civil 1280 of 2012 that establishes prior attempts to
murder me because of my corruption complaints against General Electric
Company and Montek Singh Ahluwalia. None of this has even been looked
at by the Court for over two years during which this matter has
remained pending without being heard.

I seek your immediate intervention in this matter as I fear for my life.
