Section 482 BNSS | Anticipatory Bail Granted with Strict FIR-Specific Protection and Mandatory Mediation Compliance : Punjab & Haryana HC

The Punjab & Haryana High Court granted anticipatory bail under BNSS but confined protection strictly to the specific FIR, mandating the petitioner's cooperation in investigation, mediation efforts, and payment of litigation expenses. The ruling underscores that anticipatory bail under BNSS does not confer blanket immunity and requires adherence to court-directed conditions to avoid misuse.
