The Supreme Court of India heard a petition for special leave to appeal regarding a case in the High Court of Bombay. The Supreme Court granted exemptions from filing certified copies and original transcripts. While the Supreme Court was not inclined to interfere at this stage of the case, it did extend the petitioner's interim protection against arrest that was granted by the High Court for another four weeks, during which the petitioner could seek regular or pre-arrest bail from the competent authorities. The petition was then disposed of in these terms.
