Cannot grant anticipatory bail if person is already arrested in another case: Rajasthan High Court
The Court observed that anticipatory bail was to prevent one from litigation filed with the object of humiliation. However, for a person already arrested in a case, this does not remain available, the Court said.
The Jaipur Bench of the Rajasthan High Court on Monday held that a plea for anticipatory bail would not be maintainable if the person has already been arrested and is in custody for another criminal case, whether it arises out of a similar or different offence.
