Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973, filed by the appellant, who is the elder brother of the husband of the deceased, Vibha. The Court held that the appellant did not make out a case for anticipatory bail as the allegations against him were serious and related to a non-bailable offence. Consequently, the appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the anticipatory bail application was rejected, affirming the lower court's decision.
