URVASHI GOVIND ADVANI vs STATE OF KARNATAKA

The Supreme Court ordered the transfer of CC No. 11090/2003 (PCR No. 131 of 2002) from Bangalore to Mumbai, citing the petitioner's age (80 years) and health condition (suffering from Cancer) as significant factors. The Court emphasized the need for the petitioner to effectively defend herself, which would be hindered by her inability to travel due to her circumstances. The transfer was made to ensure a fair trial without commenting on the merits of the case.
