Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted bail to the appellants, Ashok Kumar Todi and another, charged under Sections 306 and 506 IPC for abetting the suicide of Rizwanur Rahman. The Court noted the pending trial and the filing of a final report, emphasizing the need for stringent bail conditions due to the appellants' influential status, which posed a risk of evidence tampering. The Court ordered the appellants to execute a bond and imposed conditions regarding communication with witnesses and residence changes.
