The Supreme Court strongly criticised the Allahabad High Court for refusing bail to a man who has spent almost nine years in jail as an undertrial in a murder case, calling the High Court’s order “shocking and very disappointing.”
The Supreme Court slammed the appellate court’s “shocking” move of cancelling bail and issuing an NBW against a woman despite her appeal pending for eight years. Citing serious procedural lapses and her medical condition, the Court ordered her immediate release on interim bail.
