In Dolat Ram v. State of Haryana (1995) 1 SCC 349, this
Court delineated broad, though not exhaustive, grounds
justifying cancellation of bail, including:
In Jagjeet Singh (supra) (2022) 9 SCC 321, a
three-judge bench of this Court has observed that
rt
the power to grant bail under Section 439 Cr. P.C. is of
wide amplitude and the High Court or a Sessions Court,
as the case may be, is bestowed with considerable
discretion while deciding an application for bail. But
this discretion is not unfettered. The order passed must
reflect the due application of the judicial mind
following well-established principles of law. In the
ordinary course, courts would be slow to interfere with
the order where bail has been granted by the courts
below. But if it is found that such an order is illegal or
perverse or based upon utterly irrelevant material, the
appellate Court would be well within its power to set
aside and cancel the bail.
In P v. State of
Madhya Pradesh (supra) (2022), 15 SCR 211 decided by a
three-judge bench of this Court [authored by one of us
(Hima Kohli, J)] has spelt out the considerations that
must be weighed with the Court for interfering in an
order granting bail to an accused under Section 439(1)
of the CrPC in the following words:
mechanical manner without considering whether any
supervening circumstances have rendered it in
conducing to allow a fair trial. This proposition draws
support from the Judgment of this Court in Daulat Ram
v. State of Haryana (1995) 1 SCC 349, Kashmira Singh v.
Duman Singh (1996) 4 SCC 693 and XXX v. State of
of
Telangana (2018) 16 SCC 511.'
