Judgment text as reported

MAJID ALI VS State S. 497---Bail---Further inquiry---Scope---Bail is to be allowed if it appears to the Court that there are sufficient grounds for further inquiry into the guilt of the accused---Now what would constitute as sufficient grounds for further inquiry would depend on the peculiar facts of each case and no hard and fast rule can be laid down for that purpose---Every hypothetical question which can be imagined would not make it a case of further inquiry simply for the reason that it can be answered by the trial court subsequently after evaluation of evidence---Broadly speaking, the condition laid down in clause (2) of S. 497, Cr.P.C., is that there are sufficient grounds for further inquiry into his guilt which means that the question should be such which has nexus with the result of the case and may show or tend to show that accused is not guilty of the offence with which he is charged.
