BNSS Section 528 | No Automatic Quashing of Proceedings for Non-Arrested Accused Despite Charge-Sheet Filing : Allahabad HC

Allahabad High Court refuses to quash proceedings under BNSS Section 528 where the accused was never arrested, emphasizing that mere filing of a charge-sheet does not entitle automatic quashing. The court directs bail consideration under Satender Kumar Antil guidelines, reinforcing that procedural compliance alone does not override judicial discretion in criminal proceedings.
