Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court rejected a transfer petition seeking to move a writ petition from the High Court to itself, which alleged non-compliance with Section 433-A of the Criminal Procedure Code regarding the release of prisoners in Tamil Nadu. The Court found that the pending case in Andhra Pradesh was not similar and expressed confidence in the High Court's ability to address the matter on its merits. The petitioner was allowed to raise all contentions before the High Court.
