Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita | Disproportionate Culpability and Clean Chit to Co-Accused Justify Bail Denial : Bombay HC
Bombay High Court denied bail to a bank official in a Rs. 2.5 crore loan fraud case, emphasizing that mere transfer of funds to the main accused does not absolve the applicant, especially when a co-accused with similar allegations was given a clean chit. The ruling underscores that bail under BNS requires a nuanced assessment of individual culpability, not just comparative treatment.
