Order
12/03/2026
Counsel for the petitioner submits that in the present case
bail bonds were already accepted by the Investigating Agency
while he was released on bail, however, subsequently due to
political pressure, non-bailable offences were added in order to
put the petitioner behind Bars. It is submitted that thereafter on
an application being filed by the State, learned Sessions Judge,
proceeded to forfeit the bail-bonds.
The petitioner has challenged the order dated 04.02.2026.
It is submitted that merely because non-bailable offence has
been added, cannot be a ground for cancellation of bail.
Counsel for the petitioner has relied upon the judgment
passed by this Court in Sunil Bhatia & Anr. Vs. State of
Rajasthan & Anr. (S.B. Criminal Misc. Petition No.855/2026,
decided on 18.02.2026).
