The Story in Brief
The Supreme Court on Thursday took strong exception to the Karnataka High Court for granting anticipatory bail to an accused in an attempt to murder and assault case.

Judges must apply the same legal test, whether the accused is a flight risk or witness tamperer, regardless of the charge. The apex court will now test if the high court fixes its process or repeats the error.
