As per the case facts, review petitions were filed arising from an earlier Supreme Court judgment in a criminal appeal. The prosecution alleged that intruders entered a military unit, resulting ... in the death of three soldiers during firing. The reason for the review was to reconsider the earlier judgment. The question arose whether there was any error apparent on the face of the record or a manifest injustice that warranted the exercise of review jurisdiction, particularly concerning the death sentence. Finally, the Supreme Court noted that the scope of review jurisdiction is well-defined, generally limited to errors apparent on the face of the record in criminal proceedings. However, it acknowledged its wider power under Article 137 to mitigate manifest injustice in appropriate cases. The Court found no new evidence or mitigating circumstances on record that would justify a different view, especially considering the gravity of the crime involving a direct attack on India's unity, integrity, and sovereignty. The review petitions were dismissed.
