Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the cancellation of bail under Section 437 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, emphasizing that bail can be revoked if the accused fails to comply with conditions set by the court. The Court held that the appellants' departure from India without permission constituted a violation of bail conditions, justifying the High Court's decision to cancel bail and issue a warrant for their arrest. The Court also clarified the applicability of Sections 82 and 85 of the Code of Criminal Procedure regarding the attachment of properties of absconders.
