In yet another last ditch effort, lawyers for Yakub Memon, facing execution on Thursday morning, moved the Supreme Court seeking a stay of his hanging.

The three bench panel that earlier rejected Menon's plea is likely to pass an order after 2.30 am. The case will be heard inside the Supreme Court in what is being called an unprecedented hearing for the Indian judiciary.

The petition pleaded that an order should be passed that the authorities should give him at least 14 days time for execution after the rejection of his mercy petition as per the apex court's guidelines.

The petition will be processed before a decision is taken whether it is to be heard and if so by one or more judges at their residence.

Earlier, the Supreme Court rejected the petition against his death warrant saying there was no procedural lapse in the order on the curative petition. Memon's plea was earlier referred to the larger bench after Justice AR Dave and Justice Kurian Joseph differed on various aspects of the case.
