Panful Nessa vs Md. Miraj Ali & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of a High Court order granting bail to respondents accused of homicide under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, specifically Section 482. The Court held that the High Court erred in directing bail without considering the merits of the case, particularly the respondents' status as absconders. The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, emphasizing the need for a thorough examination of the circumstances surrounding the bail application.
