The Supreme Court of India has issued several significant rulings reinforcing constitutional guarantees of personal freedom and due process. The court ordered the release of a man granted bail, emphasizing that depriving someone of liberty, even for a day, is too long. Additionally, the court set stringent standards for authorities imposing preventive detention, mandating that all relevant documents and statements be furnished to the detainee. In another ruling, the Supreme Court condemned the practice of demolishing properties of individuals accused of crimes without following due process, labeling it as 'bulldozer justice.' The court stated that alleged involvement in a crime is not a valid ground for property demolition and criticized such actions as inconceivable in a country where the law is supreme. The court also highlighted that bulldozer threats are unacceptable.
