“By simply documenting a gathering of 59 pages, named as a charge sheet, without finishing the whole examination and without recording a last and undeniable charge sheet, as perceived under Section 173 of the CrPC, the indicting organization can’t enslave the legal right of the candidate to guarantee a default bail,” the request said.
