Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
The High Court allowed a criminal miscellaneous petition challenging a condition in the default bail order where the petitioner, the 5th accused, was required to deposit Rs.1,00,000 as cash security. The Court held there was merit in the contention that this amount was unaffordable, effectively denying bail, and set aside the condition while confirming the order in other respects.
What did the court decide?
The condition in the impugned order directing the petitioner to furnish cash security of Rs.1,00,000/- will stand set aside. The order in all other respects is confirmed.
