Chander Sharma @ Kaku And Anr vs State Of Himachal Pradesh & Anr

The Supreme Court dismissed the transfer petition filed under Section 406 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, seeking to transfer criminal proceedings from Shimla due to alleged threats to the petitioners' life and security. The Court found no justification for the transfer, noting that the trial was progressing with appointed legal counsel and that the petitioners had not provided sufficient grounds for a fair trial concern. The dismissal was based on the lack of merit in the petitioners' claims regarding local bias and media influence.
