Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court clarified its earlier order granting temporary bail to the petitioners, who were accused of misappropriation of funds. The Court noted that the petitioners had been released on temporary bail on March 7, 2005, but had surrendered on April 21, 2005, due to the expiration of the bail period. The Court emphasized the need for a hearing on the Special Leave Petitions and acknowledged the petitioners' willingness to negotiate repayment of the alleged misappropriated amount, but ultimately did not grant an extension of bail at this stage.
