13A. The bail granted Under Section 167 cannot be treated to be a bail of inferior order, of a pariah class. It occupies the same pedestal as that granted under Chap XXXIII and by the deeming clause, shall have full swing and I respectfully agree with Hohatgi, J, (Noor Mohd's case) IL.R (1978) 2 Delhi 442:1980 Cri LJ (NOC) 27) that bail granted Under Section 167 could be cancelled only on merits after charge-sheet is filed. I am further strengthened in my view by the decisions in Rama Murti's case 1976 Cri LJ 211)(All) and Ram Pal's case 1976 Cri LJ 288)(All). It is worth mentioning here that Ram Pal's case was approved by the Supreme Court in Bashir's case .
