R. Elavazhagan @ Babu vs Pankajam Vilwanathan & Ors

Bench: 2 — Kurian

In Brief

The Supreme Court dismissed an appeal by R. Elavazhagan against a High Court order directing cancellation of anticipatory bail and further investigation. The appellant was already on regular bail when the High Court passed its order. The Court held that the appellant cannot stall the further investigation and disposed of the appeal, directing that the appellant cooperate with the investigation. Non-cooperation would render the regular bail liable to cancellation, giving the investigating officer the remedy to seek bail cancellation before the court.
