Supreme Court Sets Bail Decision Deadline

Supreme Court Sets Bail Decision Deadline

The Supreme Court wants bail decisions to happen faster.

They told high courts and trial courts to make decisions on bail applications within two months.

This is to prevent people from waiting a long time in jail before a decision is made.

This is because the court understands the importance of personal freedom.

If there are delays caused by the people or the investigation then the rule might not apply.

The court emphasized that delays in decisions are a violation of a person's right to freedom and equality before the law.
