O R D E R Leave granted.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the sole respondent submits that he
has no instructions as such in the matter. Be that as it may, on 18.2.2008, notice was
issued indicating therein as to why the special leave petition should not be disposed of
at the notice stage itself by remitting the matter back to the High Court for a fresh
decision in accordance with law.
The impugned order dated 14.5.2007 passed by the High Court in M.Crl.C.
No. 8787/2006, disposing of the State's appeal, not only does not give any cogent
reasons but is entirely cryptic in nature. In that view of the matter, we set aside the
impugned order and remit the matter to the High Court for a fresh consideration in
accordance with law.
The appeal is disposed of with the above direction.
