The provision may therefore be invoked even where arrest is apprehended on a murder allegation. The Court may also attach conditions to anticipatory bail and, in appropriate circumstances, limit the protection in point of time to balance liberty and investigation needs. A person whose application has been rejected by the Court of Session may still move the High Court under section 438, since the High Court and Sessions Court exercise concurrent jurisdiction and no statutory bar prevents such a subsequent application. en-us Mon, 18 Sep 1989 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 28 Dec 2021 11:40:30 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299748 Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is a distinct pre-arrest remedy, and the restrictions in section 437, including those relating to offences punishable with death or life imprisonment, do not control its scope.
