Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against the High Court's order rejecting the transfer of Sessions Case No.1006 of 2009, which involved offences under Sections 323 and 354 IPC, and Sections 3(i)(X)(XI)(XV) of the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989. The Court held that the High Court's assurance that prior observations would not influence the trial was sufficient to address the appellant's concerns about fairness. The Court found no merit in the apprehension expressed by the complainant regarding the trial court's impartiality, affirming the High Court's decision to deny the transfer request.
