In Brief
The appellant Sami Ullah, lodged in Mandoli Jail, Delhi, sought temporary bail for three weeks to attend his daughter's marriage ceremony scheduled for 22 November 2021. The State of Uttar Pradesh raised no objection after verifying the marriage date. The Supreme Court granted the relief, directing the appellant's temporary transfer to Deoria Prison in U.P., his release on specified days to attend marriage and post-marriage ceremonies, and his subsequent re-lodgement. Police supervision in plain clothes, without handcuffing, was mandated, and compliance affidavits were required within three days of re-lodgement.
