![[S.438 Crpc] Orissa HC: Accused in Jail Can Seek Anticipatory Bail in Another Case](https://i0.wp.com/lawchakra.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/MicrosoftTeams-image-37.png?resize=447%2C367&ssl=1)
The Orissa High Court ruled that an accused person already in custody for one case can seek anticipatory bail in another case. The purpose of remand in the subsequent case is to facilitate investigation, not to equate to a fresh arrest. If remanded, the accused can seek regular bail but not anticipatory bail. This upholds the rights of both the accused and investigating agencies.
