Case History
The Supreme Court dismissed Hare Ram Pandey's appeal challenging his detention order under the Bihar Control of Crimes Act, 1981. The Court held that judicial interference at the pre-execution stage is limited to five specific exceptions (improper authority, wrong person, wrong purpose, vague/extraneous grounds, or lack of jurisdiction), none of which applied here. The Court rejected Pandey's claims of political vendetta and procedural defects, noting he had repeatedly filed unsuccessful petitions and attempted to evade legal process; the proper remedy was to surrender and challenge the detention on merits thereafter.
