The State’s intelligence agencies had also unearthed other incriminating evidence against him.<BR><BR> The Petitioner, a constable with the police force, was arrested for partaking in acts adversely affecting security in the State and was involved in anti-national activities. One of the several charges proved against him included hurling a hand grenade near a hospital.<BR><BR> The court concluded that judicial review of the dismissal order was restricted to the relevant authorities not having followed prescribed guidelines. However, departure from norm would likely not be interfered in by courts unless the same prejudice the interests of the public.</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top" ><strong>Relevant : Union of India v.
