Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the respondent was entitled to bail under the proviso to Section 167(2) CrPC due to the failure of the prosecution to file a charge-sheet within the statutory period of ninety days. The Court emphasized that the right to bail accrued to the respondent when he applied for it on 14.3.2007, and the High Court's decision to grant bail was upheld. The appeal by the Union of India was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order.
