Holding
The provisional anticipatory bail granted to the petitioner is withdrawn due to non‑compliance with the court’s order dated 27 January 2026.
Summary
Mukesh Kumar Singh filed an application seeking anticipatory bail in a case registered under Sections 406, 420 and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code. The Patna High Court noted that the petitioner’s counsel had failed to comply with an earlier order dated 27 January 2026 and was allegedly misleading the court. Consequently, the court dismissed the application for non‑compliance. The provisional anticipatory bail previously granted on 22 September 2017 was withdrawn. The court, however, allowed the petitioner to file a fresh anticipatory bail application after complying with the outstanding order.
Issues considered
- Whether anticipatory bail can be withdrawn on account of the petitioner’s non‑compliance with a court order
- Whether the petitioner remains entitled to bail after the withdrawal of the provisional order
