Can Rohingyas be declared as refugees, asks SC
The New Indian Express Nagapattinam
|August 01, 2025
THE Supreme Court on Thursday said the first major issue to be dealt with in cases concerning Rohingyas is whether they are refugees or illegal entrants.
THE Supreme Court on Thursday said it would first hear arguments on the issue of maintainability of petitions seeking a review of its July 2022 verdict that upheld the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) powers to arrest, attach properties involved in money laundering and carry out search and seizure under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
A bench of Justices Surya Kant, Ujjal Bhuyan and N Kotiswar Singh noted that the ED has proposed three preliminary issues that primarily deal with the question of the review petitions' maintainability. The bench said the review petitioners have proposed 13 questions for its consideration.
