Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the recall of its orders dated 11.04.2011 and 09.11.2012 in Civil Appeal No.10660 of 2010 concerning the 2G Spectrum Scam, emphasizing the jurisdiction under Articles 136 and 142 of the Constitution of India. The Court upheld the need for a thorough investigation by the CBI into allegations of criminal conspiracy under Section 120B IPC and Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, based on findings from the CAG and CVC reports. The Court concluded that the orders were not liable to be recalled, affirming the integrity of the ongoing investigation process.
