Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that transfer of cases under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C. is permissible only when there is a reasonable apprehension of injustice. In this case, the petitioner sought to transfer petitions from the High Court of Kerala to the High Court of Delhi, citing lack of support and threats to her life. The Court found no sufficient grounds for transfer, emphasizing that the High Court of Kerala is better positioned to oversee the ongoing investigation in FIR No. 260 of 2013, and thus denied the transfer request.
