Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the bail application of Dr. Vinod Bhandari under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, and 120B IPC, along with provisions of the Madhya Pradesh Manyata Prapt Pariksha Adhiniyam, 1937, and Sections 65 and 66 of the I.T. Act. The Court emphasized the gravity of the allegations involving a large-scale examination scam, where the appellant was implicated in facilitating unfair means for admission to medical courses. The Court held that the ongoing investigation and the involvement of multiple accused justified the denial of bail.
