2021 (7) TMI 1254 - HC - GSTCancellation of bail granted - allegations of tempering of evidence and influencing the witnesses - fake and non-existing firm - HELD THAT:- It is trite law that considerations relevant at the time of grant of bail are different than the considerations at the time of cancellation of bail after the accused has remained in custody. Admittedly, the investigation had started in the year 2018 and was continuing when the petitioner was arrested on 9th February, 2021 and was granted bail on 9th March, 2021 - It may be noted that the petitioner was already in custody and despite having been granted bail on 9th March, 2021 till date complaint has not been filed and in case the petitioner was in custody in the event of the complaint not being filed in 60 days, he would have been entitled to default bail. The finding of the learned CMM was that the investigation qua the petitioner was almost complete. There is no averment of the respondent that any further recovery is required to be made from the petitioner. In case other offenders are evading arrest, the same cannot be a ground to cancel the bail granted to the petitioner. Till the next date of hearing, the operation of the impugned order dated 17th July, 2021 is stayed and the NBWs issued against the petitioner are kept in abeyance - List on 7th September, 2021.
