Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the detention of Kamal Kishore Saini under Section 3(2) of the National Security Act, 1980, affirming that the grounds for detention were valid as they were based on serious criminal allegations including murder under Section 302 IPC. The Court emphasized that the nature of the allegations posed a threat to public order, justifying preventive detention. The appeal against the Allahabad High Court's order was dismissed, confirming the legality of the detention order.
