Supreme Court denies expedited handling of execution case in Bombay High Court due to heavy workload.

The Supreme Court has denied a request for expedited handling of an execution case in the Bombay High Court, highlighting the court's heavy workload. Currently, the Bombay High Court has only 64 judges, instead of the sanctioned 92, leading to each judge managing over 100 cases. The Supreme Court suggested that petitioners seek faster hearings directly from the high court, which is expected to appoint new judges soon.
