Delay in trial: Supreme Court grants bail to murder accused after 6 years in jail

The Supreme Court granted bail to a murder accused who spent six years in jail awaiting trial due to repeated delays. The accused had appealed against the lower court's denial of bail, arguing the prolonged incarceration violated their right to a speedy trial. The Court noted systemic delays in the judicial process and emphasized the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. This decision underscores the importance of timely justice delivery and the rights of the accused under criminal law.
