Summary The Additional Sessions Court at Chikkamagaluru granted anticipatory bail to the petitioner M.N. Vivek in a case registered under SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and other criminal provisions. The court found that while the complaint alleged caste-based abuse and assault with a gun, no prima facie case was established under the SC/ST Act provisions since there was no evidence of public witnessing or medical corroboration of injuries, and the complaint was filed with unexplained delay. Relying on Supreme Court precedent, the court held that the statutory bar on bail under the SC/ST Act does not apply when a prima facie case is not made out. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
