Supreme Court Grants Bail to Two UAPA Accused Citing Right to Liberty Violation
The Supreme Court granted bail to Mohd Saquib Ansari and Waqar Azhar, accused under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, after nearly 12 years in custody. The court cited the slow progress of the trial and lack of a realistic conclusion as violations of their right to personal liberty under Article 21. Both had secured bail or suspension of sentences in related Rajasthan cases. Their release is subject to trial court conditions and absence of other legal requirements.
