The CBI has approached the Supreme Court seeking cancellation of bail granted to two accused in the Manipur violence case involving gangrape and public parading of two women. The Supreme Court has issued notice and also directed immediate legal aid support for the victims.
The Supreme Court of India ruled that once a bail order is signed, it cannot be recalled or reversed due to a staff member’s typing mistake. Invoking Section 362 CrPC, the Court restored anticipatory bail, holding that changing “allowed” to “rejected” amounts to an illegal review, not a clerical correction.
