Case History
Case Summary: SLP(Crl) No. 258/2001 - Suraj Prasad Sahu v. Union of India On 17/11/2003, the Supreme Court disposed of the special leave petition challenging a Patna High Court order. The Court ordered that bail previously granted to the petitioner would continue for the duration of the case on the same terms and conditions, discontinuing the earlier practice of extending bail for six-month periods. The Court clarified that the CBI retains the right to apply for bail cancellation under law, and that deliberate protraction of trial or unnecessary adjournments would constitute grounds for cancellation.
