Bench of Justices SS Shinde and Manish Pitale of #BombayHighCourt will give their verdict in the appeal filed by NIA challenging the bail granted by the Special NIA Court Mumbai to the person accused of joining the global terrorism outfit (ISIS).

#ISIS #UAPA

Majeed, who travelled to Syria to allegedly join ISIS, was arrested in November 2014 under the UAPA after he returned from Syria. The lower court granted him bail on merits last year.

Matter was reserved for orders by High Court on February 5, 2021.

Court: The case is divided on two aspects. One on the merits of the case and the other on the aspect of pending trial.

On the merits of the case the Court has set aside the order of the lower court.
On the aspect of pending trial, the order of lower court is upheld.

Court by upholding the order of the lower court on the pendency aspect has upheld the bail granted to Majeed with additional conditions imposed on him.

ASG Anil Singh makes a request for stay on the order as the High Court had already granted him stay.

ASG: I am not asking for how many weeks.

Court: As this is a question of liberty, we cannot accept your request. And the detention of the accused for this long worked in his favour, as the judgment of the Supreme Court came in that time.

Vs Kapil Wadhawan) #SupremeCourt

#SupremeCourt says question of interim bail to be considered at the earliest by the three judge bench.

Justice Kaul-- it may not be open for a 2 judge bench to consider these issues.

Singhvi-- they have been in jail for over 11 months. The legal issue is open.

@DrAMSinghvi

@DrAMSinghvi : When a conflict in law is there the decision should be in favour of the accused.

Justice Kaul-- a larger bench must consider this issue. We will request CJI to constitute a bench at the earliest. The conflict may be capable of resolution by a 3 judge
