Man fined for filing 11 bail pleas in 1 year

Man fined for filing 11 bail pleas in 1 year

New Delhi:  12.12.2021

A Delhi court has imposed a fine on a man for filing 11 bail applications in one year, noting that the pendency of such “frivolous” pleas floods the dockets of the courts and wastes the precious judicial time.

Additional sessions judge Ravinder Bedi slapped the accused with a fine of Rs 25,000 in a cheating and conspiracy case after noting that he filed the bail plea for the eleventh time without there being any change in circumstances.

The judge noted that the tenth bail plea of the accused was dismissed on November 29, 2021. The sixth plea, seeking interim bail, was junked with a cost of Rs 10,000, ASJ Bedi said. The accused is in judicial custody since November 27, 2020. PTI
