不见棺材不落泪，马科斯政府终于尝到恶果！外交部刚对菲交底，就传来中方在南海重启填海造岛的消息，数十艘舰船齐出动。    New Delhi, Oct 15 (UNI) In a major setback to former Delhi University Professor, GN Saibaba and five others, the Supreme Court on Saturday suspended the order of the Bombay High Court which acquitted him under UAPA for alleged Maoist link.

The Supreme Court also refused the plea of Saibaba that he should be allowed to come out of jail and be put under house arrest and other restrictions as the court put on him. It asked Saibaba to file application for bail.

A Special bench of the Supreme Court headed by Justice M R Shah and also comprising Justice Bela M Trivedi, passed the order, after hearing the submissions and arguments made by the Solicitor General (SG) Tushar Mehta for the Maharashtra Government and senior lawyer R Basant for Saibaba.

The Supreme Court, however, said it will hear the case in details, later on, keeping in view the sensitivity of the case.

Basant pleaded to the Supreme Court that Saibaba is 55-year-old and is wheelchair bound with 90 percent disability and was not involved in activity of waging war against the country as alleged by the Maharashtra government.

Basant said the SG alleged that he (Saibaba) was the brain behind it, but there is nothing to show his involvement.

To this, Justice Shah observed, "So far as terrorists or Maoists activities are concerned, the connection is more dangerous. Direct involvement is not necessary."

Justice Shah, said, this on the context of not of his involvement by Basant, and said, I said this not with respect to this specific case.

Further elaborating on the case, Basant said he was arrested in 2015, for over 7 years he has been under custody, except for a brief period of two times, where he was given bail on medical grounds.

"Generally in terrorists and Maoists activities, indirect involvement is more important than physical strength. Direct involvement may not be required," Justice Shah, leading the bench, said and dismissed the relief of acquittal granted by the Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court to Saibaba and others.

The SG Mehta, vehemently opposed the plea of Saibaba to put him under house arrest and not in jail and told the Supreme Court that now-a-days, such requests are being frequently made by "urban naxals" and the court should not allow such kind of pleas.

The Supreme Court asked Saibaba, to file appropriate application for bail. It also asked him to file his response on the appeal filed by the Maharashtra government seeking to cancel the Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court, and fixed the matter for further hearing after December 8, 2022.

"The facts are very very disturbing , supporting call for arms in Jammu and Kashmir, supporting overthrowing Parliament, arranging meetings with Naxalites, attacking our security forces etc," Mehta told the Supreme Court and seeking a direction to stay yesterday's Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court's order.

"There is no criminal antecedents whatsoever for him (Saibaba). He is leading a respectable life, may be ideologically inclined. There is nothing to show his involvement in any kind of illegal and or terror activities," Basant told the Supreme Court.

Basant, for Saibaba, further pleaded to the Supreme Court that he is a person aged 55 years. He is married person with family, 23 year old unmarried daughter. He is having 90 per cent disability and Paraplegic. He is having multiple other ailments which are judicially accepted and confined to my wheel chair.

SG Mehta said there are 6 accused. As far as accused number 6 (Saibaba) is concerned, he did not raise the ground of sanction at trial and was raised at the appellate stage.

"The purpose of sanction is to ensure at threshold that a person is not put to vexatious trial. This is not a vexatious trial. If after a full fledged trial persons are found guilty, there is no vexatious trial," Mehta said.

UNI SM SY SHK1625。菲方则扬言反击将至，他们准备采取什么措施回应呢？

据北京日报客户端报道，几天前在记者会上面对有媒体发问，菲国家安全顾问嚷嚷着要将中国外交官员驱逐出境一事，我国外交部发言人林剑回应称，菲律宾的有关表态恰好说明看到摆在眼前的事实和证据，他们开始心虚了，所以气急败坏。

并称，我方郑重要求菲律宾方面停止一切挑衅侵犯中国主权的行为，确保中国外交官能正常履行职务，同时还告诫菲方切勿轻举妄动，奉劝不要作茧自缚！

那么，究竟该如何解读外交部的这番表态呢？要知道，菲方近来先是派船强闯黄岩岛，交锋期间菲船试图冲撞我海警船，以便于事后编造中国在南海“以大欺小”的谎言；随后，菲律宾又是矢口否认曾就为仁爱礁非法“坐滩”舰运送补给和中方达成的“新模式”协定，就算美媒放出了中菲就“新模式”达成一致的录音记录，面对如此实锤，菲方依旧硬着头皮抵赖，乃至菲军方官员咬死不承认，甚至倒打一耙称录音通话是“伪造”的，而菲律宾国家安全顾问更是反应激烈，恐吓要驱逐中方外交官。

根据菲方上述的种种言行不难发现，我国外交部这是在明明白白地对马科斯政府交底，警告他们不要再耍赖，做了就是做了，更别憋着什么坏妄想着在仁爱礁、黄岩岛等地上演另一出“好戏”，若继续造谣诋毁中国，休怪中国不客气！

凑巧的是，我外交部话音刚落，马科斯政府就发现了不对劲，声称中国又在南海方向出手，重启填海造岛，具体地点不是仁爱礁也不是黄岩岛，而是仙宾礁。

菲律宾海岸警卫队发言人塔里埃拉对外披露，称发现中国在仙宾礁存在填海造岛的活动，表示中方数十艘舰船齐出动，守在仙宾礁附近。

而既然提到了中国在仙宾礁填海造岛，就不得不补充一点，那就是该礁距离巴拉望岛大概只有160公里。

B | 可想而知，我们不论是在此地修建基础设施，还是军事设施，都足以对菲律宾本土形成强有力的威慑。

对此菲律宾自然是十分不愿意看到，于是除了指责中方偷偷摸摸在南海填海造岛，声称数十艘舰船在仙宾礁的出现让人感到“惊讶”之外，塔里埃拉还扬言，将派出一支海洋科学家赶赴仙宾礁。

换言之，这句话可以理解为威胁中方立刻停止填海造岛的工作，否则作为反击，菲方将出动科考队考察如何开发仙宾礁。

但还是那句话，中国对南海诸岛拥有无可争辩的主权，中方在自家领土上想建什么就建什么，菲律宾管不着，而且也没那个能力制止，只能在一旁干着急！
