Important comment of the supreme Court
While granting bail to Vijay Nair, a bench of Justice Hrishikesh Roy and Justice SVN Bhatti made an important comment. According to news agency PTI, he said, "The petitioner has been in custody for 23 months and is lodged as an undertrial prisoner. Punishment cannot be given like this before the trial begins. The universal principle of 'bail is the rule and jail is the exception' will fail completely if the petitioner is detained as an undertrial prisoner for such a long time, while the maximum sentence in case of conviction can be 7 years only. We believe that the petitioner is entitled to bail. Accordingly, bail is granted on the conditions given in this order.''
