The Supreme Court has issued a notice on the Maharashtra government’s plea challenging the Bombay High Court’s acquittal of all accused in the 2006 Mumbai terror bomb blasts case. In an interim order, the Apex Court stayed the High Court judgment, but only to the extent that it cannot be treated as a legal precedent for other cases, particularly those under the MCOCA law. The court clarified that the acquitted individuals, who have already been released, will not be sent back to jail. The Bombay High Court, in its ruling, had stated that the prosecution "utterly failed to prove the charges" and noted that investigators appeared to have been under pressure. The 2006 blasts resulted in the deaths of 189 people. The Supreme Court has previously remarked that a stay on an acquittal is the "rarest of rare," setting a high bar for the state’s appeal.
