CASE SUMMARY: CBI v. Moti Lal (Crl.A. No. 648/2001) The Supreme Court set aside the Allahabad High Court's order that had released Moti Lal on habeas corpus, finding the High Court mistakenly identified the charge as Section 50(3) of the Wildlife Protection Act when it was actually Section 49-B read with Section 51. The Court held the arrest was lawful and directed the prosecution to proceed to logical conclusion. However, granting relief for Lal's ~three months in jail, the Court directed him to surrender before the trial court within two weeks and directed the trial judge to release him on bail with conditions necessary to prevent re-occurrence of alleged wildlife offences.
