Section 483 BNSS | Bail Granted Despite POCSO & IT Act Charges for Non-Primary Circulation of Obscene Minor Images : MP HC Jabalpur

Madhya Pradesh High Court grants bail to an accused under Section 483 BNSS, holding that mere circulation (not creation) of obscene images of a minor, coupled with prolonged trial delays and lack of prior criminal record, justifies release. The ruling distinguishes between primary offenders under POCSO and secondary actors under Section 67 IT Act, impacting bail jurisprudence in digital offenses against children.
