Mr. Luthra argues that the facts of the case of his client is not the same as the one discussed in SC’s February 2024 judgment in Gurwinder Singh versus State of Punjab.
In that judgment, the SC had held that “mere delay in trial pertaining to grave offences cannot be used as a ground to grant bail.”
The top court had denied bail in the 2024 judgment to a person accused of terrorist activities and charged under UAPA.
