Abstract

The chastity trial of Thathri in 1905 stands out not only for the staggering number of men accused but also because for the first time a chance to defend themselves was granted to those accused.  The new system bodies forth the intersecting spaces of feudal/ colonial logics and jurisprudential systems. The following documents would bear testimony to the same.
