As per the case facts, the appellant challenges a High Court judgment that dismissed a petition and upheld a detention order issued against a detenue under COFEPOSA. The detention order ... was related to alleged smuggling activities. The reason for the appeal to the Supreme Court is to challenge the High Court's decision and the detention order. The question arose whether the High Court should have followed an earlier decision of a coordinate bench of the same High Court when the grounds of detention and challenge were identical, or referred the matter to a larger bench if it disagreed. Finally, the Supreme Court found that the Division Bench of the High Court should have followed the view taken by another Division Bench in identical cases. If it disagreed, it should have referred the matter to a larger bench. On this short ground, the appeal was allowed, and both the detention order and its confirmation were quashed and set aside.
