Imran Hussain \| January, 2016
The Competition Appellate Tribunal (CAT) has set aside Rs 6316 crore of penalty imposed on 11 cement firms by the Competition Commission of India (CCI) on cartelisation charges and asked the Regulator to hear the matter afresh.

Merchants of deception
Imran Hussain \| August, 2015
The Vyapam Scam operated exactly like a mafia ring with sophisticated systems in place. It had a centralised chain of command with the ring master at the top and differentiated delegation of authority for its henchmen and supporting staff.

Lawyer's Side

Before our Faith is Lost
Imran Hussain \| August, 2014
There is an extremely strong case for urgent and far reaching reforms in our judiciary. In the first three decades of our democracy, most people reposed their faith in the political class to govern them wisely to ensure freedom and justice to all. However, over the last 3 decades, the political class has become mired in corruption and has become the object of scorn and ridicule. The public now relies heavily upon the higher judiciary as the last bastion against excesses of authority and abuse of powers of the executive. To many citizens, the courts remain the last vision of hope for ensuring probity, efficiency and impartiality in administration and for delivery of justice to all. However the judiciary today is collapsing under its own weight and under the burden of pending cases. Serious questions are now being raised about integrity, efficiency and competence of our justice delivery system. If urgent reforms are not implemented, then it threatens to endanger not just the precincts of our civil society and its orderly functioning, but also poses the gravest danger of plunging the future of our republic into anarchy and chaos.

Blunt parting shot
