SC pulls up MP high court: 'You invented a clause to deny bail'
The Supreme Court has stated that convicts should be granted bail if their appeals are unlikely to be heard soon due to high court backlogs. The SC criticized a High Court ruling that required convicts to serve half their sentence before bail consideration, emphasizing that suspension of sentence should be the norm, not the exception.
