As India's Bombay High Court prepares for its 10-day Christmas break starting December 24, senior advocate Mihir Desai must navigate a challenging period to ensure the late Jesuit priest Stan Swamy's legal battles remain on track. Swamy, a prominent advocate for tribal rights, passed away in July after being hospitalized due to COVID-19 complications during his prolonged detention. His case has sparked concerns about the misuse of stringent anti-terror laws and the treatment of activists in India. With the break, Desai faces a tight deadline to address ongoing issues, keeping Swamy's legacy and the rights of the marginalized community at the forefront of his efforts.
