Summary: On December 4, 2000, the Supreme Court allowed Bhaylubhai Chimanbhai Kukana's Special Leave to Appeal against his conviction under Section 302 IPC (life imprisonment for killing his wife by strangulation). The Court found that the High Court had disposed of his criminal appeal through a cryptic order without examining the evidence on record, which was contrary to appellate procedure. The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and directed the High Court to properly dispose of Criminal Appeal No. 342 of 1998 within three months.
