Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the writ petition filed under Article 32 and Article 21 of the Constitution, seeking the constitution of a Committee for further investigation into bomb blast cases since 2002. The Court held that granting such a wide-ranging inquiry would lead to a roving investigation into ongoing criminal proceedings, which is not permissible. The Court emphasized the importance of allowing the competent jurisdictional courts to handle pending trials without interference.
