Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed Transfer Petition (Crl.) No. 258 of 2007, where Monica sought the transfer of a criminal revision petition and execution proceedings under Section 83 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. The Court held that the transfer was justified due to the ongoing criminal cases against her husband and in-laws in Delhi, emphasizing the need for judicial efficiency and convenience. The Court clarified the distinction between the provisions of Section 83(4)(a) and Section 83(4)(c) of the Code, ruling that the attachment of property was inappropriate given the circumstances.
