The Supreme Court while pulling up High Court for not priortizing bail applications, noted that in matters involving personal liberty, the Court is expected to pass orders in one way or other taking into account the merits of the matter at the earliest.
The division bench of Justice C. T. Ravikumar and Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia was deciding an SLP in which the grievance of the petitioner was that his application for anticipatory bail moved on 24.05.2022 was posted to 31.08.2022 without granting any interim protection.
The Court opined that at any rate, posting an application for anticipatory bail after a couple of months cannot be appreciated.
It thus requested the High Court to dispose of the application for anticipatory bail on its own merits and in accordance with law expeditiously, preferably within a period of three weeks after reopening of the Court.
