V.K. Sasikala vs State Rep. By Superintendent Of Police

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals challenging the Karnataka High Court's orders rejecting the appellant's requests for certified copies and inspection of documents in a pending trial. The Court emphasized the importance of transparency in judicial proceedings, particularly under Section 91 of the Indian Evidence Act, which allows for the production of documents necessary for the case. The Court held that the appellant is entitled to access the documents, thereby reinforcing the principle of fair trial rights under Article 21 of the Constitution.
