Three accused in a gang rape case involving a law student in Kolkata remain in custody. Incident occurred at South Calcutta Law College. The court awaits a complete forensic report while ensuring justice and safety on campus.

Kolkata law college gang rape case update

The Kolkata court has placed three individuals in judicial custody related to the alleged gang rape of a law student. The incident occurred on the premises of South Calcutta Law College. The investigation continues as forensic reports are awaited.

Three accused in the gang rape of a law student in Kolkata are in custody until July 22. Alleged crime occurred at South Calcutta Law College. Electronic evidence has been gathered, awaiting final forensic report.

A Kolkata court on Tuesday remanded three persons, accused in the gang rape of a student in a law college here to judicial custody till July 22.
The police prosecutors prayed that prime accused Monojit Mishra, an alumnus and temporary staffer of the college, and two current students Zaib Ahmed and Pramit Mukherjee, be remanded to judicial custody.
The Alipore court, after hearing all the parties, granted the prayer.
A security guard of the college, Pinaki Banerjee, who was also arrested in connection with the case, was also forwarded to judicial custody till July 22.
It is alleged that the first-year student of South Calcutta Law College was raped inside the premises of the institute by Mishra, assisted by Ahmed and Mukherjee, on the evening of June 25.
The state's lawyer submitted before the court that it has worked on electronic evidence with regard to the crime during their police remand.
It was also stated that though some preliminary forensic reports have been received in this regard, the investigators were awaiting the final report of the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL).
After getting the FSL report, the state may pray for further police remand in the interest of investigation, he told the court.
The lawyer for the prime accused claimed that the investigators did not follow established practices during his interrogation.
The advocate representing the security guard submitted before the court that he had no role to play in the crime.
The trio was arrested on June 26, and produced before the court the following day, which initially remanded them to four-day police custody.
Upon production at the Alipore Court on July 1, the court extended their police remand till July 8.
The 24-year-old student had alleged that she was gangraped in the college premises on the evening of June 25.
The prosecution has stated before the court that the 24-year-old victim was given an inhaler by the accused so that they could physically torture her after she was in full consciousness.

The India Story | What’s on CJI U U Lalit’s agenda for judicial reform?

U U Lalit will have a short tenure as Chief Justice, but the task before him is enormous. What's top on his agenda for judicial reform? Vikram Chandra discusses with experts.

U U Lalit will have a short 74-day tenure as Chief Justice of India when he takes over the position from NV Ramana. The task on Justice Lalit&rsquo;s hands, however, is enormous. The Indian Judiciary is faced with a logjam, as high case pendency and a large number of under-trials are just some of the problems that plague the legal system. If justice delayed is justice denied, how can India ensure swift justice for its citizens?

Here’s a question for you – does a painting belong to the artist or a canvas? Do films belong to the directors and producers or the screen you saw it on? Do your headphones deserve credit for the latest Dua Lipa hit, or well Dua Lipa herself?   Unless you’re an anti-social rabble rouser who just wants to argue – chances are you would have sided with the artist in all these cases - When it comes to the ownership of art, the artiste always trumps the medium.   But what about tattoos?  Here, art is being created, but the medium is not lifeless. It's a living, breathing, thinking human being with their own rights. So does a tattoo artist lose rights over their artwork, or do they start owning their customers' arms, or legs, or even faces? The question boggles the mind, but here’s a breakdown of what our laws have to say about the ownership of artwork.   Section 2 of The Copyright Act of 1957, describes artistic work as work that includes engraving, sculpture, painting, or a photograph. Section 13 says that as long as this artwork is fixed to a tangible medium the copyright shall remain.   If we were to put two and two together, then tattoos are clearly engraved and well, human skin is pretty tangible – so tattoos can in fact be copyrighted by the tattoo artist!   We can all agree Stu waking up with his Mike Tyson tattoo in Hangover 2 will go down in the Hall of Movie fame as one of the funniest scenes ever - but you know who wasn't laughing at that scene The film-makers!  That 64 second scene cost Warner Bros way more money than intended.  S. Victor Whitmill, the artist who designed and made Mike Tyson's face tattoo, filed a case against Warner Bros, for not taking his permission to use the tattoo in the movie.  So, did he really have a case or was this a shot in the dark?   For that, we go back to 2003, when Mike Tyson effectively gave up all rights over a design he sports on his face. To be fair, not the weirdest thing he's done. The legendary boxer signed a tattoo release form stating that "all artwork, sketches and drawings related to my tattoo and any photographs of my tattoo are property of Paradox-Studio of Dermagraphics." - So yes, the tattoo artist absolutely had a case! And it’s not just us saying that, before the matter could go to trial, Warner Bros. arrived at an amicable settlement with Whitmill, details of which are not available to the public. So, despite the fact that the wrestler was actually himself a part of the film, the artist had the final say in the matter.   This issue presents a few pitfalls – if a person enjoys complete autonomy and control over their own artwork, this could enter a dangerous territory of controlling the autonomy of your canvas too. Case in point: what if Dwayne Johnson’s tattoo artist suddenly decides he wants his artwork covered up at all times? Would Dwayne Johnson stop taking his shirt off in public? Probably not!   But the law is written in black and white – and not only does the law grant copyright to the tattoo artist, it also grants them something called ‘Moral rights’ or right to Integrity! Which means that if any distortion, mutilation, or alteration of the artwork takes place that is detrimental to the author’s reputation – they can sue.  All in all, this is starting to sound like a very bad deal for the person actually getting the tattoo – is there nothing that protects their rights? Of course, there is!  Take for example removing a tattoo that you don’t want anymore. A very important case comes to mind – that of Architect Raj Rewal who went to the courts to try to stop the demolition of a building he had designed, citing that it will be a blow to his reputation. Here the court exclaimed that which cannot be seen cannot harm the author’s reputation. All in all, despite the laws granting the artist several rights, you can probably still get that ‘I love Dolly’ tattoo removed if you want to!  Coming back to the principal question we began with – what are the rights of the canvas when the canvas is a living breathing person?    In our country, publicity rights are almost synonymous with privacy rights, and have the importance of a fundamental right. So, what are Publicity rights? A person has protection against the misuse of their name, likeness or other markers of identity. Simply put, a person can protect their image from being used unfairly. Despite the fact that publicity rights are not explicitly enshrined in our laws, there have been several cases that involve this principle. And it’s also been held that publicity rights included the ability to allow or prohibit the commercial use of one’s appearance or personality traits.   It’s a double-edged sword to answer this question of copyright vs publicity – because while economic rights in artistic work are provided by law, including the right to transmit the work to the public, reproduce it, issue copies and so on, any effort by the tattoo artist to exercise these rights would be a violation of the individual’s own publicity rights. India is yet to see a case where these two rights butt heads, but it’s a not uncommon in other parts of the world.  That’s not to say that a person can never get the copyright for a tattoo they didn’t design. In fact, Shah Rukh Khan has a copyright for the tattoo design that he sported in the film Don 2! There are some methods to ensure that you get this legal right – granting a license, signing a contract with your designer, relinquishing a copyright are just some such ways.   Art is heartwarming, and powerful – but in this world where there’s art, there’s also big money. From sports stars in ads, to movie star blockbusters – it's fair to say that everyone wants a piece of the pie, so this argument isn’t going away anytime soon.  Watch episode 1: Watch episode 3: Watch episode 4: 

How and Why | Tattoos Episode 2: Who owns a tattoo? The question of copyright

A camping association in New Zealand is urging the govt to tighten law that allows people to poop in public places if they don't think that they are being observed.
Responsible Campers Association Inc wants the govt to make the law stricter by requiring people to do such activities at least 50 metres away from a waterway and bury the excreted waste at least 15cm into the earth.
Currently, in New Zealand defecating or urinating in a public place&nbsp; is an offence but if the person can prove they had reasonable grounds for believing they were not being observed, they may be able to escape a $200 fine.
Local residents and administration in New Zealand have been voicing concerns for years over campers dirtying and littering the camping ground.
