Further, the Past antecedents of the Atikur Rehman are not such that may justify his continued detention.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court also noted that the co-accused, namely Siddique Kappan and one other who were named in the same FIR have been enlarged on bail by a co-ordinate Bench of this Court and the Supreme Court. The Court further noted that barring a sum of Rs. 5,000 credited to the account of Atikur Rehman, no other financial gain through the website is apparently shown based on any tangible material.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court said that the State is bound by the constitutional morality and any departure would come to the rescue of the person aggrieved for Article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=\">21<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726967\">Constitution of India<\/a> is the grundnorm.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Thus, the Court granted bail to Atikur Rehman in Hathras Conspiracy Case.
