IN some cases existing laws may be inadequate to grant relief to persons whom, the Court feels genuinely to be entitled to relief but in such cases the Court should not allow itself to be deflected by red herrings drawn across the track and it has to pass such orders as the circumstances warrant to secure the interest of justice and to appease its judicial conscience.
