Bangalore  / New Delhi, April 8 (IANS) Union Minister for Law and Justice M. Veerapa Moily Thursday said Karnataka High Court Chief Justice P.D. Dinakaran is not above the law and he will have to abide by the Supreme Court Collegium's advice to proceed on leave.

"I don't think Justice Dinarakan is above the law, or he is beyond the reach of the law," Moily told reporters here.

He said this in response to a query on what the government proposed to do on Justice Dinakaran defying the advice of the collegium - a panel of five seniormost apex court judges headed by the Chief Justice of India - to go on leave.

The apex court panel last week recommended that Delhi High Court Acting Chief Justice Madan B. Lokur be appointed in Justice Dinakaran's place. Justice Dinakaran was asked to go on leave owing to the state high court facing an administrative problem.

Justice Dinakaran had earlier been asked not to conduct any judicial proceeding. Since December, he has been supervising only the administrative work of the court.

He is facing serious allegations of corruption and land grab.

    Now there is another good comment from Mr. Moilly. He says that Justice Dinakaran is not above the law. Other day Mr. Moilly said that Indian justice system is one of the best in the world.
    If that is the case, then how is that there are so many Criminals,Rowdies,murderers and Corrupt officials are ruling this great country. Starting from Panchayat Board to Parliment House in New Delhi. Even Lokayukta can't punish these Crooks. Mr. Moilly,will you please tell us,how are these Criminals got into Parliment to sit with you during the Session. Law of the middle east is right. 17 Indians got death for killing a civilian in Gulf country. In India,these 17 would have gone free with Political connection and the innocent one would have been hanged. Politician speak from both side of the mouth.

    Wow Mr Moily,

    Read constitution again,CJ or Justice of any high/supreme court could be removed only by impeachment.

    Now CJI can only transfer a high court CJ to any other high court as CJ, he has no power to ask anybody to go on leave.

    Now Mr Moily thinks by adding his votes to opposition votes, it become two third ,so he can threaten Mr Dinakaran to go on leave, and become a hero.

    Mr Moily and CJI both have similar legal background and both are children of reservation...

    Mr PDD, if you succumb to these silly threats(my gut feeling you will...), then you are guilty in first place....
