It is stated in the application that the anticipatory bail was procured by respondent no.2 by suppression and misrepresentation of facts. The applicants were not arrayed as party to the bail application. The respondent
no.2 has filed M.Cr.C.No.13851/2018 for quashing the criminal proceedings on the ground of compromise entered into between the parties whereas no such compromise took place between the parties. The anticipatory bail granted by this Court is being misused by the respondent no.2. As such the bail order having been procured by suppression of material facts is liable to be recalled. Learned counsel relied upon the judgment of the Apex Court in the case of Bhadresh Bipinbhai Sheth Vs. State of Gujarat and another ((2016)1 SCC 152) to contend that this Court has powers to recall its order.

Abdul Kadir Choudhary ((2014)10 SCC 754) wherein the Apex Court has held that the High Court could not have entertained the said petition and cancelled bail on the ground of it being perverse in law. It is settled law that judgment and order granting bail cannot be reviewed by Court passing such judgment and order in absence of any express provision in Code for same. Since, no express provision for review
of order granting bail exists under Code, High Court becomes functus officio and Section 362 of the Code applies barring review of judgment and order of Court granting bail to accused.
Having heard learned counsel for the respondents, in absence of any allegation with regard to violation of bail conditions, this Court does not find it a fit case to be entertained.
The application sans merit and is, accordingly, dismissed.
