Decided: 9 April 2026
Disposal: 28-REJECTED @ ADM.STAGE
Bench: P M RAVAL

Holding

The Court held that the applicant did not make out a case for temporary bail and therefore dismissed the application.

Summary

The applicant, Amin Rafikbhai Meman, filed a temporary bail application through jail after being arrested on 10 January 2026 for a serious offence. The jail’s remarks indicated the seriousness of the charge and referenced an order by the learned Sessions Judge. The High Court examined whether the applicant had made a case for bail given the recent arrest and the nature of the offence. The Court found that no sufficient grounds were presented to justify temporary bail. Consequently, the application for temporary bail was rejected. The order was directed to be communicated to the jail authority.

Issues considered
