‘Harsh & Unjust’: Gauhati High Court Sets Aside Bail Condition To Produce Govt Servant As Surety

Case: MOINUL HOQUE vs THE STATE OF ASSAM

Coram: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE HITESH KUMAR SARMA

Case No: Crl.Pet./173/2021

Court Observation: “…this Court is of the view that surety of a government servant, as sought for, is too harsh for the petitioner that it would amount to refusal of bail as he wouldn’t be out on bail if required to produce a Government Servant as surety”.

“…this Court considers the condition that one of the sureties to be a government servant of Grade-III rank appears to be unjust and unfair and, therefore, the condition of one of the surety to be a government servant is set aside”
