History

After the 1995 Mohan Singh v. State ruling barred bail for a politician with twelve pending cases, Bihar’s Patna High Court later freed Anant Kumar Singh despite his record 67 criminal charges. Citing that precedent, the Supreme Court in 2026 cancelled his bail, ordering surrender by Dec 1 and a four-month probe by Bihar police, reinforcing the anti-criminalisation drive.
