Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, while adjudicating a Writ Petition under Article 32 of the Constitution, held that the personal bonds and sureties executed by the petitioner in connection with one FIR can be treated as valid for multiple bail orders across different jurisdictions. The Court emphasized the need for uniformity in bail conditions and the principle of justice, allowing the petitioner to leverage existing sureties for subsequent bail orders. The decision clarifies the procedural flexibility in bail matters, ensuring that the petitioner is not unduly burdened by repetitive surety requirements across various FIRs.
