Section 43D(5) UAPA | Delay in Trial & Parity with Co-Accused Insufficient for Bail Without Prima Facie Case Deficiency : Jharkhand HC

Jharkhand HC reaffirms that bail under Section 43D(5) UAPA cannot be granted solely on grounds of trial delay or parity with co-accused unless the prosecution's case is prima facie untrue. The court emphasized that parity must be based on role equivalence, not mere charge similarity, reinforcing the stringent bail standards under anti-terror laws.
