The Delhi High Court considered a bail application in a money laundering case involving a predicate offence. The delay in trial was a key issue. The court emphasized that bail decisions should be based on the merits of the case, independently of previous orders. The accused's right to fair trial, including access to legal remedies, was highlighted. The court noted that filing applications for legal rights is not a delay tactic. The accused's individual rights and legal strategies were recognized, and delays were not attributed to the prosecution or the trial court. Economic offences were deemed serious, impacting bail decisions. The applicant's alleged role in policy modifications benefiting co-accused was discussed, along with actions to influence public opinion and evidence tampering. The court found no grounds for bail solely based on trial delay, considering the gravity of the offence and legal requirements. The bail applications were ultimately dismissed.
