 PLD 2021 SC 894

Maintainability of the second pre-arrest bail petition after dismissal of the first pre-arrest bail petition for non-appearance of the accused and lack of his satisfactory explanation for his non-appearance in the earlier pre-arrest bail petition.

If a pre-arrest bail petition is dismissed for non-appearance of the petitioner under Section 498-A CrPC, the second pre-arrest bail petition is maintainable only if the petitioner furnishes satisfactory explanation for his absence in the first petition. Only if the explanation is found satisfactory can the Court proceed further and decide the second petition on merits. However, if the explanation is found to be unsatisfactory, the second petition is not maintainable and is liable to be dismissed without going into the merits of the case.
