SC dismisses plea for review of order granting bail to TN Minister Senthil Balaji
Supreme Court has dismissed a plea seeking review of an order granting bail to Tamil Nadu minister V Senthil Balaji in a money laundering case related to a cash-for-jobs scam. A bench of justices Abhay S Oka and Augustine George Masih also dismissed a prayer for conducting open hearing on the review petition.
«Application seeking oral hearing of the review petition is rejected. The review petition seeks review of judgment and order dated September 26, 2024. Having gone through the review petition and the connected papers, we do not find any ground to review the order sought to be reviewed. There is no error apparent on the face of the record,» the bench said in its order passed on December 17, and uploaded on the apex court website on Saturday.
The bench noted that an application for recall of the same order is pending and is being heard by the court.
The review petition was filed by one of the complainants in the case.
On Friday, while hearing a petition for the recall of the September 26 order, the bench observed it was «terribly wrong» to appoint Balaji as a minister in the Tamil Nadu government days after he was granted bail in the case.
