Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted bail to the appellants whose applications for suspension of sentence had been rejected by the High Court, noting that their appeals have been pending since 2007 and they have been in custody since 2005. The Court highlighted that one co-accused had been granted bail in a related matter, indicating a potential for similar relief. The Court directed that the appellants be released on bail, subject to conditions imposed by the trial court, unless they are required in other cases.
