Anticipatory Bail Under IPC Sections 420, 406, 120-B | Non-Cooperation Without Self-Incrimination Not Ground for Denial : Punjab & Haryana HC

Punjab & Haryana High Court holds that anticipatory bail cannot be denied merely for alleged non-cooperation if the accused complies with lawful investigation queries without self-incriminating. Custodial interrogation for recovery alone is insufficient grounds for denial, reinforcing the principle that pre-trial incarceration requires stronger justification than procedural non-compliance.
