Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court set aside the Allahabad High Court's order granting bail under Section 113B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, and Section 304B IPC, emphasizing the necessity for a reasoned order when granting bail, especially in serious offenses. The Court noted that the High Court failed to apply its mind to the facts, particularly regarding the unnatural death occurring within seven years of marriage. The matter was remitted for fresh consideration with directions to provide a reasoned order.
