A.M. Bharwad and Others v. State of Gujarat and Others
Case brief
What is this about?
Short disposal order of the Supreme Court of India dated 26 August 2010 (Criminal Appeal No. 1585 of 2010 and connected Crl.A. Nos. 1586-1598 of 2010, A.M. Bharwad and Others v. State of Gujarat and Others, bench P. Sathasivam and B.S. Chauhan JJ., judgment by Dr. B.S. Chauhan J.). The appeals challenged the judgment and order dated 22.12.2009 of the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in Criminal Misc. Application No. 8361 of 2009. Rather than re-deciding the questions of investigation into two FIRs, re-investigation/further investigation, and propriety of charge-sheet where investigation is unfair/vitiated, the Court disposed of all these appeals 'in terms of' its judgment of even date in Babubhai v. State of Gujarat and Ors. ((2010) 10 SCR 651; Criminal Appeal No. 1599 of 2010, arising out of SLP (Crl.) No. 2077 of 2010), entitling the parties to relief, if any, per that judgment. Counsel included U.U. Lalit, P.S. Narsimha, R.K. Abichandani, Tushar Mehta (AAG, for the State) and others.
