JUDEGEMENT

Case Summary The Surat Additional Sessions Court rejected the anticipatory bail application of Mukeshbhai Ukani, who was accused of cheating under Section 318(4) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, involving an alleged investment fraud of ₹65 lakh in a company with non-recovery of ₹58 lakh. The court found that existing statutory protections under Sections 41-41A of the BNSS and Supreme Court directions in *Arnesh Kumar v. State of Bihar* adequately safeguard against illegal arrest, making anticipatory bail unnecessary at that stage, and permitted the applicant to file a fresh application if police attempted arrest with concrete reasons. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
