John K. John vs Tom Varghese & Anr on 12 October, 2007
The other two cases i.e M.S. Narayana Menon @ Mani vs State Of
Kerala & Anr 2006 (6) SCC 39 & John K.John v. Tom Varghese (2007)
12 SCC 714, are also distinguishable on a meaningful reading and for the
above reasons. It becomes important to underscore the unfortunate tendency
of placing reliance on a large number of precedents, without bothering to
discern the ratio that a decision lays down. A decision is to be read
secundum subjectam materiam i.e in the specific light of its own facts and
not as an Euclid's theorem or a statute.
