Background of case
This Appeal is filed in the Supreme Court of India through a transfer petition
against an interim order directing the release of the respondents on bail
passed by the High Court of Delhi at New Delhi.
Third
Facts of the case
The Central Government, directed an investigation into the affairs of Adarsh
Group of Companies and (Limited Liability Partnerships) LLPs by (Serious
Fraud Investigation Office) SFIO officers. Investigating various areas, including
fund rotation, mismanagement, the role of auditors, and compliance with
statutory provisions.
Subsequently, SFIO officers were appointed as inspectors, and investigations
began. Arrests were made based on the investigation's findings of three
accused individuals - Rahul Modi, Mukesh Modi, and Vivek Harivyasi.
The accused were produced before the Judicial Magistrate First Class,
Gurugram. The magistrate granted remand, allowing SFIO custody for three
days.
SFIO sought an extension of time for completing the investigation. The
Central Government granted an extension.
Writ Petitions (habeas corpus) in the High Court of Delhi were filed
challenging the legality of the investigation and subsequent actions, including
arrests, on the grounds of expiration of the investigation period.
The High Court held that subsequent remand orders could not justify the
continued illegal detention of the respondents and issued an interim order
directing the release of the respondents on bail.
Fourth

habeas corpus petitions in Supreme Court of India?
