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.

Mukesh Nasa default bail as prayed for.”

1 (2020) 10 SCC 616

The grounds taken in the Review Petition do not make out any error

apparent on record to justify interference.

This Review Petition is, therefore, dismissed.
