1989 (6) TMI 227 - SUPREME COURTWhether the discretion exercised by the High Court is legally sustainable? Whether the accused have a special right to remain on bail merely because they have been enlarged under proviso (a) to Section 167(2) of the Code? Held that:- The offences alleged are of serious nature. I am of the opinion that the discretion exercised by the High Court does not call for any interference. The accused cannot claim any special right to remain on bail. If the investigation reveals that the accused has committed a serious offence and charge-sheet is filed, the bail granted under proviso (a) to Section 167(2) could be cancelled. The petitions are, therefore, rejected.
