COMMISSIONER, TRADE TAX, U.P. LUCKNOW vs M/S. SANJAY COAL TRADERS

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal by the State of Rajasthan against the High Court's order allowing the suspension of conviction under Section 51 of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972. The Court held that the High Court's decision to permit the respondent to travel abroad without prior permission was justified given the circumstances, including the respondent's professional commitments and the rejection of his UK visa application due to his conviction. The Court emphasized the need for balancing the rights of the individual against the interests of justice, ultimately upholding the High Court's order.
