Camel Slaughter Back On
Sunday, December 31, 2006
Word out of India today that a court has changed its mind about a planned slaughter of camels this weekend for an Islamic festival.
The Madras High Court today vacated its order of December 28 preventing the slaughter of camels in Tamil Nadu during Eid-ul-Zuha, observing that there was no statutory bar on it.
Hearing a batch of petitions seeking the vacation of the order and implead petitions, including a review petition filed by the Tamil Nadu Advocates' Meelad Forum, a division bench comprising justices P Jyothimani and K Chandru said, "In the absence of any statutory bar, the court cannot continue the injunction."
