Overview

• Setting aside orders of the ACMM, the sessions court and the Delhi High Court, the Supreme Court cancelled bail to Dharam Pal Singh Rathore and Shiksha Rathore and directed their surrender within two weeks.
• Justices Ahsanuddin Amanullah and S.V.N. Bhatti said the lower courts glossed over crucial facts and binding precedents, calling the reasoning untenable and bordering on perversity.
• The two Karkardooma judicial officers must undergo at least seven days of special training at the Delhi Judicial Academy, with arrangements requested from the Delhi High Court Chief Justice.
• The Delhi Police Commissioner was directed to personally inquire into investigating officers who downplayed the need for custodial interrogation after the chargesheet was filed.
• The case stems from a Netsity Systems complaint over a ₹1.90 crore land deal; the Court noted years of interim protection, unfulfilled undertakings, and procedural lapses including the absence of a formal interim release order despite surrender.
