Delhi POCSO Court Dismisses 500-Page Bail Plea as Too Voluminous

The judge cited judicial economy in an in-camera hearing and directed a concise refiling.

Overview

  • Additional Sessions Judge Ramesh Kumar at Karkardooma issued the order on October 17 during bail proceedings.
  • The filing spanned roughly 500 pages with annexures, which the court said would consume precious judicial time.
  • The court recorded the Investigating Officer’s reply to the bail application before disposing of the plea.
  • Liberty was granted to submit a fresh, shorter bail application after the judge advised counsel to condense the plea.
  • The case stems from a 2024 registration at Kalyanpuri Police Station under POCSO provisions, with proceedings conducted in-camera.
