Supreme Court Explains Application Of SAFEMA After Detention Order Under COFEPOSA Has Been Revoked

Case: THANESAR SINGH SODHI (D) THR. LRS v. UNION OF INDIA AND ORS

Coram: Justice Vikram Nath and Ahsanuddin Amanullah

Case No.: CIVIL APPEAL NO.5500 OF 2011

Court Observation: The submission is that provisions of SAFEMA could be made applicable only against the person in respect of whom the order of detention has been made under COFEPOSA. Once the order of detention itself had been revoked for whatever reasons there would be no order of detention against such person under COFEPOSA and therefore, no applicability of SAFEMA
