Supreme Court order
The Supreme Court bench said that the investigation will take time and during this time interim bail is being given to the accused while avoiding any kind of haste. This bail has been given on the condition that even after getting bail, the accused should maintain proper conduct and follow the orders of the court. Also, the Supreme Court has directed that the government submit a report on the conduct of the petitioners in the case, so that transparency is maintained in the investigation of the case.
This decision was pronounced by a bench of Justice Suryakant and Justice N Kotiswar Singh. Justice Suryakant said in his order, “We are not in any kind of hurry and neither do we intend to interfere in the investigation, but we only want to ensure that the accused cooperate in the fair investigation by following the conditions of their bail.”
