Cancellation of bail granted for alleged GST evasion through clandestine cigarette supplies involving approximately ₹72 crore was sought on the ground that the trial court failed to take a prima facie view of the gravity of economic offences, relied on an insignificant deposit, and granted bail while investigation was incomplete with a risk of evidence tampering. The court agreed that economic offences warrant stricter scrutiny and that the bail order understated the offence's seriousness, but held that the investigating agency's prolonged inaction-no complaint filed even after more than five years and investigation still stated to be pending-militated against curtailing liberty at this stage; the cancellation petition was dismissed - HC
