In Re: Destruction of Public & Private Properties VS State of A. P. - 2009 3 Supreme 557 : Under the PDPP Act, bail is not a matter of right. The court’s discretion to grant bail to persons charged under s.3(1) is restricted to cases where there are reasonable grounds to presume the accused is not guilty, in line with Section 437 of the CrPC. Therefore, an accused who has been in custody for 7 days is not automatically entitled to bail; bail may be granted only if the court is satisfied of such reasonable grounds.Checking relevance for Kodungallur Film Society VS Union of India...
Kodungallur Film Society VS Union of India - 2018 0 Supreme(SC) 961 : The PDPP Act does not give an automatic right to bail for a Section 3(1) offence. Bail is at the court’s discretion and may be granted only if the court is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds to believe the accused is not guilty. The court may impose conditions such as the accused depositing security equal to the quantified loss caused or furnishing other security. This reflects the restriction under Section 437 of the CrPC and the Committee’s recommendation that bail for public‑property‑destruction offences be granted only on such terms, irrespective of the length of custody (e.g., 7 days).Checking relevance for Central Bureau Of Investigation, Special Investigation Cell 1, New Delhi VS Anupam J.
