The Supreme Court on Monday refused to expunge its earlier remarks against the former minister, Senthil Balaji, and said that it would not change even a single word or even "touch a single word" of the previous judgments in cases concerning him seeking expunction of certain remarks made in the judgments related to the cash-for-jobs scam case.

SC Refuses to Expunge Observations in Verdict Against Ex-Tamil Nadu Minister

"We will not expunge anything, we will not touch a single word. We are not touching the judgment. We will only clarify that the observations shall have no bearing on the trial. That's a basic principle of criminal jurisprudence. Basic principles are always to be followed...there's no question of entertaining any review," said a two-judge bench of the top court comprising Justice Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi.
