Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the externment order against the Respondent under Section 47 of the Delhi Police Act, 1978, affirming that the Respondent's actions posed a threat to public safety and order. The Court emphasized that the externment was justified due to the Respondent's history of criminal activities and the reasonable belief that he would continue to engage in offenses. The Court found no merit in the Respondent's claims of false implication, thereby affirming the order for his removal from the National Capital Territory of Delhi for two years.
