The two-judge bench of Justices JK Maheshwari and AS Chandurkar said: “Observations made by the HC in the impugned order are not based on correct appreciation of all the material which has been placed on record and appear to be erroneous, in particular shifting the burden on the accused.”

The court also directed Khera to be released on anticipatory bail in the event of his arrest in Crime Branch Police station in Case No. 04/2026 and on such reasonable terms and conditions as deemed fit.
