2. This interim bail application has been received in this post-lunch session by way of second supplementary list after mentioning was allowed by Hon’ble Chief Justice.

3. On the same grounds for interim bail, as raised in the present application, the accused/applicant had filed another bail application which GIRISH KATHPALIA

was registered as Bail Application 3960/2026 and that application was dismissed by way of detailed judgment dated 21.09.2026. Despite that, on the same grounds again the present interim bail application has been filed.

4. It is contended on behalf of accused/applicant that in terms of paragraph 14 of judgment dated 21.09.2026 passed in Bail Application No.3960/2026, certain directions were issued to the jail authorities, but the same have not been complied with, so this fresh interim bail application on same grounds has been filed.

5. For convenience, paragraphs 13 & 14 of order dated 21.09.2026 passed in Bail Application No.3960/2026 are extracted below:

“13. Considering the above circumstances, especially that from record it appears that the accused/applicant did not appear in the April 2026 examination despite having obtained interim bail in April 2026 on that ground, I am not inclined to grant interim bail. The interim bail application and accompanying applications are dismissed.

14. However, it is directed that in case the accused/applicant so desires, the concerned Jail Superintendent shall allow him uninterrupted benefit of studying in the jail library from morning till evening and shall also take up, with the concerned Education Board, to arrange examination centre within jail premises itself.”

6. It is submitted by learned counsel that the accused/applicant was verbally informed by the jail authorities that they have already sent a report to this Court expressing their inability to arrange for the examination centre GIRISH KATHPALIA

within jail premises itself. It is submitted by learned counsel that the said report may be requisitioned.

7. But admittedly, this is not an application seeking initiation of contempt proceedings, otherwise the Court would have looked into the allegation of non-compliance with judgment dated 21.09.2026.

8. There being no change in circumstances after 21.09.2026 when the earlier interim bail on same grounds as raised in the present application was dismissed by way of detailed judgment, there is no occasion to entertain this second application for grant of interim bail.

9. Therefore, the interim bail application and accompanying applications are dismissed.
