Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined whether an order granting default bail under Section 167(2) of the Cr.P.C. constitutes an interlocutory order that is exempt from revisional jurisdiction. The High Court had previously set aside a Sessions Judge's order by classifying the Magistrate's release order as interlocutory. The case focuses on the maintainability of revision petitions against orders relating to the release of an accused due to failure to file a charge-sheet within the statutory period.
