Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court which affirmed the Special Judge's order rejecting the appellant's application under Section 91 of the Cr.P.C. for summoning documents. The Court found that the documents sought were not necessary or relevant to demonstrate that the prosecution's case was improbable or unworthy of trial, and the attempt to summon them was merely to delay proceedings. The Court held that the discretion exercised by the Trial Judge was neither unjust nor improper, thus dismissing the appeal.
