casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Criminal Appeal No. 30 of 2000 Union of India v. Kishan Dan (Heard: September 20, 2006) The Supreme Court allowed the Union of India's appeal against the High Court's acquittal order. The High Court had set aside the trial court's conviction solely on the ground that Sections 42 and 50 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 were not complied with. However, both parties agreed these provisions were inapplicable to the case. Since the High Court did not examine the merits of the appeal, the Supreme Court set aside the acquittal and remanded the matter to the High Court to reconsider the appeal on merits with proper hearing to both parties. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
