Delhi HC Slams Courts Over Bail Granted to Cheating Accused

Imagine a person, Nikhil Jain, is accused of selling a property using fake documents.

Jain's applications for bail were rejected multiple times, including by the Delhi High Court.

However, lower courts granted him protection from arrest.

The Delhi High Court was unhappy with the lower courts, calling their actions judicial indiscipline.

The High Court noted the investigating officer's unusual behavior, who chose not to arrest Jain despite the previous denials of bail.

Jain had joined the investigation temporarily but then disappeared, leading to the issuance of arrest warrants.
