The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to lift the stay on the release of seven death-row convicts in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case. Taking up the issue of release of life convicts by state governments, a five-judge Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court comprising Chief Justice HL Dattu and Justices Ibrahim Kalifulla, Pinaki Ghose, AM Sapre and UU Lalit said it will not tinker with any of our earlier orders for the time being. While adjourning the matter for further hearing on July 21, the bench said that it will hear the matter in detail and then decide on returning power of remission to state governments.
