Holding
The court held that the petition for modification is allowed, granting an additional eight‑week surrender period subject to a Rs.5,000 deposit and submission of the bail‑bond receipt.
Summary
The petitioner, Nagendra Yadav, filed an application seeking modification of a prior order dated 13‑11‑2025 that had extended the time allowed for his surrender in a criminal case. The petitioner argued for additional time to surrender and to furnish a bail bond. The court examined the reasons presented and considered the need to balance the petitioner’s request with the interests of justice. It granted an additional eight‑week period for surrender, conditioned upon a deposit of Rs.5,000 to the District Legal Services Authority and submission of the receipt with the bail bond. Consequently, the earlier order was modified accordingly and the petition for modification was allowed.
Issues considered
- Whether the court may further extend the period granted for surrender in the criminal case
- Whether imposing a monetary deposit and bail‑bond receipt as conditions for the extension is permissible
