Section 389 CrPC | Life Convict Having Undergone 10+ Years Entitled to Bail on Parity with SC Guidelines : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court suspended the sentence of a life convict who had already served over 10 years, 10 months, and 21 days, aligning with Supreme Court directives in Sonadhar and Saudan Singh. The ruling reinforces that prolonged incarceration without appeal disposal justifies bail, even in heinous offences, unless exceptional circumstances exist.
