Review Petitions Nos. 2210 to 2227 of 1998 In Crl. As. Nos. 1207-22 of 1997,
186 & 187 of 1998 | 16-12-1998

There is an inordinate delay of 179 days in filing these review petitions. The
application seeking condonation of delay is vague, indefinite and contains no
reasonable or satisfactory explanation. That the delay has occurred because of
"paucity of staff", is hardly an explanation for seeking condonation of such an
inordinate delay. The application seeking condonation of delay is; therefore,
rejected. Consequently, the review petitions shall stand dismissed, as barred by
time.
