2009 (11) TMI 198 - HC - CustomsBail- It is alleged in the petition that the order granting bail is bad in law as well as on facts as the case involved evasion of customs duty amounting to more than Rs. 1 crore and the Learned ACMM did not deal with all the submissions and did not consider the judgment relied upon by its counsel despite noticing them. It has been stated that bail ought not to have been granted to the respondents in view of seriousness of the offence, pendency of investigation and the conduct of the respondents. Held that- there is no allegation that the respondent has tried to misuse the liberty of bail granted to him. There is no allegation that he did not attend the Court or even the office of Directorate of Revenue Intelligence. There is no allegation of his trying to influence any witness or interfering with the course of investigation. In view of the above discussion, subject to the respondent complying with the undertaking given by his counsel, there is no compelling ground for setting aside the order whereby the bail was granted to the petitioner. The petition is therefore dismissed.
