Case Note & Summary
The Supreme Court was dealing with a review petition filed against an order dated 05.07.2021 in a criminal matter. The petitioners had filed an application seeking oral hearing in the matter, which was dismissed by the court. The court noted that the submissions advanced on behalf of the petitioners had already been dealt with in the earlier order dated 05.07.2021. The court examined the grounds raised in the review petition and found that they did not make out any error apparent on record that would justify judicial interference. The court reasoned that since no error apparent on record was established, there was no valid basis to entertain the review petition. Consequently, the court dismissed the review petition, finding no reason to interfere with the earlier order.
