Section 43D(4) UAPA | Mere Sheltering Without Knowledge or Active Role Not Sufficient for Bail Denial: Punjab & Haryana HC
The Punjab & Haryana High Court ruled that passive sheltering of an accused under UAPA, without proof of knowledge or active involvement, does not constitute an offence. The court emphasized that anticipatory bail denial under Section 43D(4) UAPA cannot be automatic and must be based on concrete evidence, not speculative allegations.
