Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court directed the establishment of a Special Court under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 for the transfer of cases CC No.7 of 1997 and CC No.2 of 2001 from Tamil Nadu to Karnataka. The Court mandated the appointment of a Special Judge and a public prosecutor, ensuring the trial proceeds expeditiously and witnesses are protected. The Court emphasized the need for the trial to be conducted fairly and without jeopardizing the security of the parties involved, particularly in light of the sensitive socio-political context surrounding the cases.
