Abdul Latif vs Abdul Hamid And Anr.

The Supreme Court expressed displeasure over the suppression of material facts in petitions filed under Article 136, specifically the omission of a second review petition before the High Court. Despite this, the Court opted not to dismiss the appeals on technical grounds, emphasizing a justice-oriented approach. The Court quashed the impugned judgment and remanded the case to the High Court for reconsideration under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, while imposing costs of Rs. 2,500 on the appellant to be paid to the Supreme Court Legal Services Committee.
