|Punjab and Haryana High Court
Anticipatory Bail Granted Where Accused Cooperates and Repays Loss | No Custodial Interrogation Justified Under Section 438 CrPC : Punjab & Haryana HC
The Punjab and Haryana High Court granted anticipatory bail to an employee accused of criminal breach of trust and cheating, holding that full restitution of Rs 6 lakhs combined with full cooperation negates the need for custodial interrogation. The ruling reinforces that mere employment status without managerial control, coupled with restitution, satisfies the Arnesh Kumar guidelines for non-arrest under Section 438 CrPC.
