As per the case facts, credible information indicated that an extremist organization was spreading its ideology and conspiring to commit terrorist acts, including fundraising and recruiting. The High Court granted
...bail to the respondents, which led to an appeal by the national investigation agency. The question arose whether the High Court's bail order was legally sound, considering the UAPA's purpose to prevent unlawful activities and terrorist acts, while also navigating the delicate balance between individuals' civil liberties and paramount national security interests. Finally, the Supreme Court overturned the High Court's order, requiring the respondents to surrender. The Court underscored the critical importance of national security and stated that any action supporting terrorism, whether violent or not, must be restricted. The UAPA, designed to prevent unlawful activities and deal with terrorism, imposes justifiable limitations on civil liberties to protect India's sovereignty and integrity. The Special Court was instructed to proceed with the trial promptly, uninfluenced by the Supreme Court’s observations.
