In assessing such relief, the nature and gravity of the accusation, antecedents, likelihood of flight from justice, and cooperation with investigation are relevant. Where the case concerns a serious offence, the investigation is ongoing, and the accused is absconding or declared a proclaimed offender under Section 82, anticipatory bail is ordinarily not to be granted. Non-cooperation despite interim protection is also an adverse factor. On these principles, anticipatory bail was held unjustified and the claim was rejected. en-us Fri, 31 Aug 2012 00:00:00 +0530 Sun, 10 Dec 2023 15:25:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=294345 Anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is a discretionary remedy that depends on reasonable apprehension of arrest and the applicant's conduct.
