RAVINDRA PAL SINGH vs AJIT SINGH

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in granting bail to police officials accused of murdering Ranbir Singh, an MBA student, under Sections 120B, 364, 302, and 201 IPC. The Court emphasized the seriousness of the charges and the potential threat to the complainant and witnesses, asserting that the absence of CBI representation during the bail hearing should not have influenced the decision. Consequently, the Court set aside the bail orders issued by the High Court, reinforcing the principle that bail should not be granted in cases involving serious allegations of police misconduct.
