Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in granting bail to the respondent, an Inspector of Police, involved in the organized crime known as the 'stamp scam'. The Court emphasized that the evidence presented by the CBI, including witness statements and confessions, indicated the respondent's complicity in the crime under Sections 3, 4, and 24 of the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act, 1999 (MCOCA). The Court overturned the High Court's bail order, reinforcing the seriousness of the charges and the societal impact of the offenses.
