The Uttarakhand High Court held that advance notice under BNSS Section 35(3) is required before police can demand a person’s personal presence during an investigation. This protects individuals from coercion and ensures procedural fairness, especially for those with health issues.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court granted bail to an accused in an excise case after the prosecution's seizure witnesses retracted their statements and medical evidence confirmed chronic liver disease. This reinforces that bail is not merely a procedural formality but a rights-based remedy when investigation is complete, witness credibility collapses, and health risks are substantiated - setting a critical precedent for non-bailable excise offences under BNSS.
