BNS Section 103 | Bail Granted Despite Firearm Recovery When No Eyewitness or FSL Evidence Links Accused to Crime: Allahabad HC

Allahabad HC rules that recovery of a firearm alone is insufficient to deny bail under BNS Section 103 and Arms Act if no eyewitness or forensic evidence connects the accused to the crime. The judgment underscores that pre-trial detention must be justified by substantive evidence, not mere recovery, reinforcing bail as a right where prosecution fails to establish a prima facie link.
