Delay in preferring Review Petition is condoned.
Application for listing Review Petition in open Court is rejected.
Relying upon the decision in Bikramjit Singh vs. State of Punjab1
, it was observed by this Court:-
“Consequently, insofar as “Extension of time to complete investigation” is concerned, the Magistrate would not be competent to consider the request and the only competent authority to consider such request would be “the Court” as specified in the proviso in Section 43-D(b) of the UAPA.
In view of the law laid down by this Court, we accept the plea raised by the appellants and hold them entitled to the relief of default bail as prayed for.”
1 (2020) 10 SCC 616
