Case History
Case Summary: SLP(Crl) No. 006124/2010 The Supreme Court granted bail to Shyam Kumar @ Seth on December 3, 2010, after hearing his Special Leave Petition against the Allahabad High Court's order. The Court found that a notification could not be applied retrospectively, meaning the heroin recovered from the petitioner could not be classified as commercial quantity. Considering the petitioner had already been in custody for over four years, faced a maximum sentence of ten years, and numerous witnesses remained to be examined, the Court deemed him entitled to bail. The petition was disposed of with bail granted to the satisfaction of the trial court. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
