casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court dismissed Balu @ Balamurugan's special leave petition challenging his conviction by the Madras High Court (dated 18-10-2024), but confined the notice to the issue of sentence reduction. The court condoned the delay in filing, waived formal notice to the State, and directed the petitioner to serve the petition within one week, with counter-affidavit due within three weeks and rejoinder within two weeks thereafter; next hearing is on 25-05-2026. Exemption from surrendering continues until further orders. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
