Four hours before execution, Memon woke up SC one last time
At 3:17 a.m. on the day of his execution, Yakub Memon woke up the Supreme Court to hear him for one last time in an unprecedented early morning hearing in the highest court's long history. At 10 minutes to 5 a.m., hardly a couple of hours before his execution, the Bench held that Memon had enjoyed "ample opportunities" before the apex court, filed an abundance of petitions and any further leeway to him would be a "travesty of justice". Justice Misra, who led the Bench comprising of Justices Prafulla C. Pant and Amitava Roy, asked Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi whether Memon's family was allowed to meet him. there is no error in judgments passed by this court,"Justice Misra said, dismissing Memon's last appeal before the Supreme Court.
