The Delhi High Court Wednesday dismissed the plea of South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) seeking modification of a 2007 direction to it to catch monkeys from the city and release them into the Ridge area.

A bench of Chief Justice D N Patel and Justice C Hari Shankar said once the issue was finally decided by the court and disposed of in 2007, anyone aggrieved with the order should file an appeal or review and not an application seeking modification of the decision.

The bench told the corporation that the court was "not going to hear any of your (SDMC) reasons for inability, disability or deliberate non-compliance of the order."
