SC bench slams own court ruling denying bail to Umar

NEW DELHI: Supreme Court seems split on the issue of bail and right to liberty, enshrined as a fundamental right. An SC bench Monday expressed “serious reservations” on the court’s verdict denying bail to Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam, saying it didn’t follow a larger bench judgment — which is “law of the land” and as per which bail should be granted in cases of long incarceration and delay in trial, even under UAPA and PMLA.
