Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the Special Leave Petition challenging the rejection of bail for the petitioner charged under multiple sections including Sections 302, 307 IPC, and Sections 3(2), 3(3) of POTA. The Court emphasized that the examination at the bail stage is limited to a prima facie view of the case, and found that the circumstances did not warrant bail. Consequently, the Court upheld the decisions of the Special Judge and the High Court, affirming that the petitioner should remain in custody.
