Sealed justice: On sealed cover jurisprudence (The branch of philosophy concerned with the law and the principles that lead courts to make the decisions they do)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Supreme Court should lay down the limits of using sealed cover material to adjudicate (Bring to an end) <\/strong>cases<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In refusing to entertain \u2018sealed covers\u2019 submitted by the government or its agencies, the Supreme Court has made a noteworthy and welcome shift away from this unedifying (\u200bunpleasant in a way that causes disapproval) <\/strong>practice. At least two Benches have spoken out against it. Recently, in the Muzaffarpur shelter home sexual abuse case, Chief Justice N.V. Ramana wondered why even an \u2018action taken\u2019 report should be in a sealed envelope. The use of material produced in a \u2018sealed cover\u2019 as an aid to adjudication is something to be strongly discouraged and deprecated (Express strong disapproval of)<\/strong>. However, it gained much respectability in recent years, with contents withheld from lawyers appearing against the government, but being seen by the judges alone. Unfortunately, in some cases, courts have allowed such secret material to determine the outcome. In a recent instance, the Kerala High Court perused (Examine or consider with attention and in detail) <\/strong>confidential intelligence inputs produced in a sealed envelope by the Union government to uphold the validity of orders revoking (Cancel officially) <\/strong>the broadcasting permission given to Malayalam news channel Media One on the ground of national security. It is quite disconcerting (Causing an emotional disturbance) <\/strong>to find that courts can rule in favour of the government without providing an opportunity to the affected parties to know what is being held against them. In this backdrop, it is significant that the Supreme Court has decided that it will examine the issue of \u2018sealed cover jurisprudence\u2019 while hearing the channel\u2019s appeal. For now, the apex court has stayed the revocation order and allowed the channel to resume broadcasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is true that the law permits the submission of confidential material to the court in some cases. In addition, courts can order some contents to be kept confidential. The Evidence Act also allows the privilege of non-disclosure of some documents and communications. Even when authorities claim privilege over classified material, they had no objection to judges perusing them to satisfy themselves about the claims. The government usually justifies the submission of secret material directly to the court, citing national security or the purity of an ongoing investigation. Courts have often justified entertaining material not disclosed to the parties by underscoring (emphasizing the importance of something) <\/strong>that it is to satisfy their conscience (Conformity to one’s own sense of right conduct)<\/strong>. However, the practice sometimes has undesirable consequences. It compromises the defence of those accused of some crimes, especially those involving an alleged threat to national security, or money laundering and corruption. Undisclosed material is often used to deny bail, something the apex court criticised the Delhi High Court for doing in a case against former Union Minister P. Chidambaram. It observed that recording a finding based on material kept in a sealed cover was not justified. The main mischief of the \u2018sealed cover\u2019 practice lies in the scope it gives the state to avoid deep scrutiny of the need and proportionality of its restrictions on freedom. The time has come for the Supreme Court to determine and circumscribe (Restrict or confine within limits) <\/strong>the circumstances in which confidential government reports, especially those withheld from the other side, can be used by courts in adjudication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
