Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's recall of its earlier bail order under Section 14A(2) of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 was improper as it was based on the appellant's alleged suppression of material facts regarding criminal antecedents. The Court emphasized that there was no evidence of the appellant violating bail conditions or misusing the liberty granted. Consequently, the Supreme Court reinstated the bail order, affirming the appellant's entitlement to bail based on the earlier findings of the High Court.
