casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed Swaran Singh's special leave petition challenging a High Court order dated 19/03/2012. The Court found that Singh had remained absconded for five years and was declared a proclaimed offender. The Court held that Section 438 CrPC does not permit anticipatory bail petitions when there is apprehension of absconding, particularly where the applicant has already been absconding. Singh's unscrupulous approach to quash the proclamation order rendered the application unentertainable. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
