Nanhey v. State of U.P.
Case brief
What is this about?
Bail rejected; applicant Nanhey; case crime no. 2078 of 2009; Sections 307, 504 IPC; P.S. Shahbad, District Rampur; criminal history of 16 cases including attempt to murder, N.D.P.S. Act and robbery; absconding for over 15 years; charge sheet filed; session trial pending 15 years; trial court directed to expedite conclusion of trial.
What did the court decide?
The Court declined to release the applicant on bail, taking into account his criminal history of 16 cases (mostly heinous offences including attempt to murder, N.D.P.S. Act and robbery) and that he remained absconding for more than 15 years, making his presence during trial appear difficult; bail was refused to prevent further offences and to ensure his presence before the trial court. ¶14
