#prosecution witnesses

The Madhya Pradesh High Court granted bail to an accused in a wildlife and arms case after prosecution seizure witnesses retracted or failed to substantiate key allegations. This reinforces that procedural fairness under BNSS Section 483 overrides the gravity of non-bailable offences when evidentiary support collapses, setting a critical precedent for undertrials facing multi-statute charges with weak forensic backing.

Madhya Pradesh High Court holds that accused may seek summoning of prosecution-listed witnesses as defense witnesses under Section 311 CrPC, even at final arguments, if no prejudice is shown.
