BNS Sections 87, 318(4) & 64(2)(m) | Consensual Adult Relationships Merit Liberal Bail Even in Financial Disputes : Uttarakhand HC

Uttarakhand High Court grants bail to an accused in a UPI fraud and abduction case, emphasizing that consensual relationships between adults-even with financial disputes-warrant a liberal bail approach under Article 21, especially when the victim is a major and the accused has no criminal antecedents. The ruling reinforces that personal liberty prevails where coercion or criminal history is absent.
