Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the bail granted to Allauddin, convicted under Sections 147, 148, 302/149 IPC and Sections 25/27 of the Arms Act, was not warranted given the circumstances of the case. The Court emphasized the seriousness of the crime and the need for the accused to remain in custody while the appeal was pending. Consequently, the bail was cancelled and the High Court was requested to expedite the appeal process.
