Elanchezhiyan v. State of tamilnadu Rep. by The Sub Inspector of Police
Case brief
What is this about?
Madras High Court; Shamim Ahmed, J.; CRL MP No. 2555 of 2026 in Crl.R.C. No. 272 of 2026; exemption from surrender; Section 528 BNSS 2023; mandatory surrender before criminal revision; conviction in C.C. No. 325 of 2013 confirmed in C.A. No. 3 of 2021; Walajabad Police Station Crime No. 15/2013; Kancheepuram; reliance on Crl.M.P. No. 1957 of 2026; surrender-exemption petition dismissed.
What did the court decide?
There are no compelling or extraordinary grounds to waive the mandatory requirement of surrender prior to consideration of the Criminal Revision Petition; in light of the settled legal position and this Court's earlier order in Crl.M.P. No. 1957 of 2026 in Crl.R.C. No. 272 of 2026, the statutory mandate cannot be bypassed. ¶25
