Kerala HC denies plea for in-camera proceedings in trial of Abhimanyu murder case
The Kerala High Court rejected a request for a closed‑court hearing in the Abhimanyu murder trial, affirming the Ernakulam District Court’s ruling that an in‑camera proceeding is unnecessary. Petitioners argued that allowing the public could create crowds and disrupt witness testimony, but the court said the case’s conditions did not justify a closed session. The decision leaves the trial to proceed in public as scheduled.
