Bail Revoked When Sureties Are Fictitious; SC Orders Strict Verification Under Section 37 NDPS Act : SC
The Supreme Court cancelled the bail of a foreign national accused of large-scale heroin trafficking after discovering the pledged sureties were non-existent, and directed all courts to implement a rigorous verification process for NDPS sureties. The order tightens bail safeguards in drug cases and obliges authorities to confirm surety authenticity, affecting future bail applications involving foreign nationals and narcotics offences.
