MANJIT PRAKASH & ORS. vs SHOBHA DEVI & ANR.

The Supreme Court held that the cancellation of bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure requires clear and specific reasons, which were lacking in the High Court's order. The Court emphasized that the considerations for granting bail differ from those for cancellation, referencing the principles established in Aslam Babalal Desai v. State of Maharashtra. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's order cancelling bail, reinstating the appellants' bail status.
