The continued accusation is not extinguished by those procedural steps, so anticipatory bail remains maintainable if circumstances justify its invocation. Where anticipatory bail is granted after issuance of a warrant, the warrant must be executed consistently with that protection. However, the Court held that Section 438 does not permit an interim order directly restraining arrest in such proceedings. en-us Fri, 30 Sep 1994 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 24 Dec 2021 12:30:29 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299657 Section 438 is construed broadly to cover a person who reasonably apprehends arrest on a non-bailable accusation, even after cognizance has been taken, process issued, a non-bailable warrant issued, or committal proceedings begun.
