Akhay Kumar Mallik v. State of Odisha
Case brief
What is this about?
Anticipatory bail application where the petitioner did not appear. Noting the trial court had rejected bail after examining eight charge-sheeted witnesses, the High Court disposed of the application with liberty to seek bail afresh before the trial court if the case remained pending.
What did the court decide?
Liberty to the petitioner to move the trial court afresh for bail if the case remains subjudiced.
