NEW DELHI, July 23 (PTI): The Supreme Court on Tuesday said courts should stay bail orders only in exceptional circumstances.

A bench of Justice Abhay S Oka and Justice Augustine George Masih said so while setting aside an order of the Delhi High Court, which stayed bail to an accused in a money laundering case.

“Though court may have power to grant stay on bail, it must be done only in exceptional circumstances,” the bench said.
