Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming the Special Court's order granting default bail to respondents under Section 167(2) Cr.P.C. The Court found that the chargesheet filed by the CBI was incomplete and did not comply with the statutory requirements of Section 173(2) Cr.P.C., thus entitling the respondents to bail. The Court clarified that the jurisdiction of the Special Court was valid and the bar under Section 17A of the PC Act was not applicable in this case.
