casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed Dilipji Varnsangji Thakor's special leave petition challenging the Gujarat High Court's judgment, after condoning the delay in filing. However, noting that the petitioner has been incarcerated for over 8 years, the Court directed the Correctional Home Superintendent to move the Government of Gujarat for his premature release, subject to eligibility under the State's remission policy, with the State to decide expeditiously.
