Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision denying bail to Gurwinder Singh under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, in a case involving serious charges under Sections 124A, 153A, 153B, and 120B of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, as well as Sections 17, 18, 19 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967. The Court emphasized the gravity of the charges related to terrorism and separatist activities, affirming that the denial of bail was justified given the potential threat to national security. The appeal was dismissed, maintaining the lower courts' rulings.
