Have you noticed that in every bail judgment from the Madras High Court or from any Sessions Court in Tamil Nadu, there is a specific paragraph added incase bail is granted. Such a paragraph specifies that incase the accused violates any conditions mentioned in the bail order, the Magistrate shall have the power to cancel bail. For this, the Courts refer to the landmark case from the Hon’ble Supreme Court – P.K. Shaji v. State of Kerala (AIR 2005 SC 100).
Such reference to the judgment in P.K. Shaji judgment did not begin with the Madras High Court. It began with the Kerala High Court. But is it still being used by the Kerala HC? Which other High Courts follow the template? What is the meaning of the paragraph? What are the concerned provisions from the Cr.P.C., 1973?
