Professor TJ Joseph while framing the Malayalam question paper for the second semester B.Com. examination at the Newman College, Thodupuzha, had included a question which was considered objectionable against a particular religion by certain sections of society. Prosecution alleged that Najeeb in association with other members of the Popular Front of India (PFI), decided to avenge this purported act of blasphemy. On 04.07.2010 at about 8AM, a group of people with a common object, attacked the victim-professor while he was returning home with his mother and sister after attending Sunday mass at a local Church. Over the course of the attack, members of the PFI forcefully intercepted the victim's car, restrained him and chopped-off his right palm with choppers, knives, and a small axe. Country-made bombs were also hurled at bystanders to create panic and terror in their minds and to prevent them from coming to the aid of the victim. Najeeb was arrested on 10.04.2015 and has been in jail since then. The Kerala High Court granted him bail, but the Supreme Court stayed that Order. Did Najeeb finally get bail from Supreme Court? What are the contours of bail jurisprudence in special laws such as UAPA. This and lots more in Episode 2 of Law and Behold! Union of India v. K.A.
