Narendra Kumar Pandey v. The State Of Bihar Through Director Vigilance Bureau Department, Bihar
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court at Patna rejected the petitioner's petition for anticipatory bail under Section 438 CrPC in a corruption case. The court held that despite a prior grant of bail conditional on appearing, the petitioner failed to appear after the charge-sheet was submitted, thereby forfeiting trust and warranting no further relief.
What did the court decide?
The petition for anticipatory bail was rejected; the petitioner remains on prison bail until appearance is regularized.
