A bail order may be cancelled under Section 439(2) CrPC where it is passed with haste, without application of mind, on irrelevant material, or with manifest impropriety that prejudices the prosecution's fair opportunity. The Magistrate also retains jurisdiction to consider bail merely because life imprisonment is one of the possible punishments; the Section 437 bar applies where death or life imprisonment is prescribed as alternative punishment. The challenge to the custody refusal succeeded, and the bail order was set aside. en-us Thu, 22 Jul 2010 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 17 Dec 2020 18:27:54 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=292287 An accused arrested during further investigation after cognizance may still be subjected to police custody under Section 167 CrPC within the statutory limits, and refusal of such custody is revisable because it finally deprives the investigating agency of that relief.
