Holding

The anticipatory bail application was dismissed as infructuous because the applicant had already surrendered.

Summary

Madhav Ramrao Shinde applied for anticipatory bail before the Aurangabad Bench of the Bombay High Court. During the hearing, counsel for the applicant informed the court that the applicant had already surrendered to the police. Consequently, the court found that there was no longer any ground for granting anticipatory bail. The application was therefore held to be infructuous.
