Allahabad HC Grants Bail to GST Fraud Accused Over Passing Fake ITC on Ground of Parity

Allahabad High Court granted bail to a GST fraud accused on the ground of parity. The court considered that other similarly placed co-accused in the same case had already been granted bail. Applying the principle of parity, which suggests that similarly situated individuals should be treated alike in legal proceedings, the High Court decided to grant bail to this accused as well. This ruling underscores the importance of consistency in the application of bail decisions within the same criminal case.
