Summary: On 2 March 2001, the Supreme Court heard Nawal Kishore's special leave petition challenging the High Court's revision order. The Court granted leave and allowed the appeal, setting aside the High Court's decision and restoring the Sub-Divisional Magistrate's order releasing seized property. The Magistrate had correctly reasoned that after 19 years of seizure (since 1980), there was no likelihood of breach of peace under Section 145 CrPC, making continued property seizure unjustified; the High Court erred in interfering with this order. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
