https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=280918 Section 496 of the 1898 Code gives a right to bail in bailable offences, but that right is not absolute and may be lost if the accused's later conduct jeopardises a fair trial. Section 561A preserves the High Court's inherent power to make orders needed to prevent abuse of process and secure the ends of justice, and that power can extend to cancelling bail in a proper case. The scheme of the Code, including the express cancellation powers in Sections 497 and 498, does not exclude inherent jurisdiction where release on bail is being used in a manner that defeats or endangers the fair progress of the trial. en-us Fri, 07 Feb 1958 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 25 May 2019 11:25:03 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=280918 Section 496 of the 1898 Code gives a right to bail in bailable offences, but that right is not absolute and may be lost if the accused's later conduct jeopardises a fair trial.
