Chhattisgarh Liquor Scam | 'No Possibility Of Trial Commencing In Near Future' : Supreme Court Grants Bail To PMLA Accused

The Supreme Court of India has granted bail to Anwar Dhebar, an accused individual in the high-profile Chhattisgarh liquor scam case, which is being investigated under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The apex court considered the prolonged period of detention already undergone by Dhebar as a significant factor in its decision to grant bail. This ruling aligns with the principle that lengthy pre-trial detention, especially when the trial is not progressing expeditiously, can be a ground for granting bail, upholding the accused's right to liberty and a speedy trial, even in complex financial crime cases.
