44. The learned counsel for the DRI submits that in the facts and
circumstances of these cases there is absolutely no delay in execution of the
detention orders. He refers to the various steps taken to ensure the timely
execution of the detention orders. He submits that the failure to mention about
the order of detention in the counter affidavit filed in the applications for
modification of bail conditions does not cause any prejudice to the detenues.

Others56, Syed Farooq Mohammad v. Union of India (UOI) and

the DRI and the State Police had taken steps under Section 7 of the COFEPOSA
Act to secure the arrest and detention of the aforesaid persons.
