In Brief
Ram Naresh Yadav sought pre-arrest bail under Section 438 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The Supreme Court found that by the time of the hearing, investigation into the FIR had been completed and a report filed under Section 173(2) Cr.P.C. The Court held that once investigation concludes, an anticipatory bail application becomes moot. It directed the appellant to appear before the court as required and pursue regular bail at that stage, disposing of the appeal accordingly."> </invoke>
