Courts can give pre-arrest bail outside jurisdiction: Supreme Court
The Supreme Court ruled that high courts or sessions courts have jurisdiction to entertain anticipatory bail pleas and can grant transit bail to an accused even if the offence was committed in another jurisdiction. The court introduced the concept of transit anticipatory bail, similar to transit remand. The judgment emphasized the fundamental right to personal liberty and access to justice. The court imposed conditions to prevent forum-hunting and misuse of its ruling. The court also highlighted the need for a territorial connection in seeking anticipatory bail and clarified that the accused cannot travel to another state solely for the purpose of seeking bail. The omission of qualifications in the law should be interpreted to protect personal liberty.

Bombay high court rejects pre-arrest bail plea of ‘extremely violent’ cop in rape case
The Bombay high court refused pre-arrest bail to a policeman who sexually exploited his colleague and intimidated her with a pistol. The court stated that a consensual act does not justify continuous exploitation and granting bail would hinder the investigation and victim’s interests. The FIR was lodged by the colleague, accusing the policeman of attempted murder, rape, intimidation, and illegal possession of a firearm. The accused spiked her drink, raped her, threatened her, and even assaulted her family. The court found credible evidence and refused bail based on the persistent harassment and threats.
