Interestingly, the Centre informed the Delhi High Court that the notification was «untraceable, and therefore, could not be produced». As a result, the high court rendered the petition infructuous, holding that it has «no other option except to presume that no such notification exists».
The division bench of the high court ruled that it «cannot examine the validity thereof and dispose of the writ petition as infructuous». The bench has held that the petitioner is «entitled to take all actions in respect of the said book as available in law».
The petitioner, Sandipan Khan, had moved the Delhi High Court seeking to quash the October 1988 notification issued by the Customs Department to all state governments and Union Territories for appropriate action under the law to ban the import of 'The Satanic Verses'.
