3rd Additional Sessions Judge Jammu Madan Lal after hearing both the sides observed that from the perusal of the charge sheet, charges and witnesses recorded regarding the offences under Sections 13/17/21/39/40 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, there are reasonable grounds for believing that the accusation of above said offences against the applicants are prima facie true. Moreover, the case is at the stage of prosecution evidence and many PW are yet to be examined and PWs who have been examined have supported prosecution case. Keeping in view the above discussed facts and case-law, in the first case, it is held that delay in trial of serious offences cannot be ground for grant of bail; in the second judgment, bail granted to the accused in UA (P) Act offences by the Special Court and High Court has been cancelled by the Hon'ble Supreme Court. In third judgment, bail has been granted by the Hon'ble Supreme Court but only in the exercise of powers of a constitutional Court, holding that statutory restrictions under Section 43 (D) of UA (P) Act is not binding on the constitutional Courts. Therefore, considering the facts, law and the case-law, the application of the applicants is pre-mature and without merits, at this stage, so cannot be allowed and bail cannot be granted. Same is rejected and bail is denied, Court ordered. —JNF |
