Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the cancellation of bail under Section 439(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, for the appellant accused of serious offenses including Sections 302, 364, 365, 120B IPC, and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act, 1950. The Court emphasized the gravity of the charges related to fake encounters involving senior police officers, asserting that the nature of the allegations warranted the cancellation of bail to prevent interference with the investigation. The Court concluded that the High Court's decision to cancel bail was justified given the circumstances of the case.
