A service law case in Karnataka High Court saw the defendant win by withholding crucial documents, despite strong evidence against them. The plaintiff appealed and won, with the Supreme Court upholding the verdict. This judgement, setting a precedent for similar cases, found the suppression of evidence to be fraudulent. Could this judgement be challenged now that the plaintiff has obtained the missing documents through an RTI request?

The Supreme Court’s judgement, finding the defendant’s suppression of evidence fraudulent, set a precedent. While the plaintiff now has the missing documents, this judgement cannot be challenged based solely on the new evidence. The Supreme Court’s decision, based on the evidence presented at the time, is final and binding.
