Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court considered an appeal against the High Court's decision to grant bail to Mahesh Kumar, an accused under Section 302 IPC. The appellant argued that there was a longstanding rivalry between the deceased and the accused, and that the deceased had lodged a complaint shortly before his death. The Court ultimately upheld the High Court's bail order, emphasizing the need for careful consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding the case.
