Deepak vs The State Of Maharashtra

The Supreme Court examined the legality of an externment order issued under the Maharashtra Police Act, 1951, against the appellant, Deepak. The court found that the order was based on multiple criminal cases, some of which were pending and others resulted in acquittal. The court emphasized the need for a fair assessment of the grounds for externment and ultimately quashed the externment order, ruling that it was not justified based on the available evidence.
