Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the detention order under the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1973, stating that the Detaining Authority was aware of the detenu's retraction of his statement, even though the Magistrate's order was not presented to them. The Court ruled that all relevant documents were provided to the detenu, and the failure to furnish non-material documents, such as bank pass books, did not violate the detenu's rights. Consequently, the detention order was deemed legal and valid under Section 37 of the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1973.
