Surender Alias Bhura vs. State Of Haryana
Held
The High Court granted regular bail to the petitioners, considering the period of custody, the nature of offenses triable by a Magistrate, and the fact that co-accused had been granted bail in similar cases. The court did not comment on the merits of the case.
Facts
The petitioners sought regular bail in a case involving allegations of creating a fake firm, issuing invoices for huge amounts without goods movement, and wrongfully claiming input tax credit, causing significant loss to the exchequer. They were implicated based on the statements of co-accused and the use of their mobile phones.
Key Issues
The primary issue was whether the petitioners were entitled to regular bail given the nature of the allegations, their period of custody, and the bail granted to co-accused in similar FIRs.
