Holding
The court granted regular bail to the petitioner.
Summary
Sudhir Yadav was arrested in connection with a case registered under Sections 126(2), 115(2), 117(2), 109(1), 303(2) and 3(5) of the BNS for allegedly assaulting and seriously injuring an informant. He had been in custody since 12 February 2025 and his earlier bail application was rejected on 23 April 2025. The petitioner filed a second regular bail application, arguing that the period of custody and the injury report warranted release. The court examined the seriousness of the offences, the length of detention, and the medical report, and found no compelling reason to continue incarceration. Consequently, the court allowed the bail application, directing the petitioner to furnish a bail bond of Rs. 10,000 with two sureties of the same amount.
Issues considered
- Whether the petitioner is entitled to regular bail despite the seriousness of the offences under the BNS.
- Whether the period of custody and the injury report justify the grant of bail.
Legislation cited
