Anticipatory bail lawyer in Delhi NCR providing pre-arrest protection under Section 484 BNSS 2023 before Sessions Courts and the Delhi High Court.
Advocate Tarun Lal, through BLJ Legal, provides legal representation in anticipatory (pre-arrest) bail matters under Section 484 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS). The practice is confined to cases where an individual apprehends arrest in a non-bailable offence and seeks judicial protection of personal liberty prior to any custodial action.
This page deals exclusively with anticipatory bail. Bail remedies available after arrest are governed by a separate legal framework and are advised independently.
Where there is a real apprehension of arrest, delay may result in unnecessary detention. Early legal consultation enables timely assessment of jurisdiction, preparation of the anticipatory bail application, and seeking interim protection where warranted.
Courts also consider the conduct of the applicant and the timing of the approach. Prompt and structured legal advice is therefore critical in anticipatory bail matters.
Anticipatory bail is a pre-arrest statutory safeguard available under Section 484 BNSS. It allows an individual to apply for bail in anticipation of arrest where there is a reasonable apprehension of being taken into custody for a non-bailable offence.
The provision seeks to prevent misuse of arrest powers, particularly in matters involving:
False or exaggerated allegations
Civil disputes given criminal colour
Matrimonial or property-related complaints
Commercial and financial disputes
Grant of anticipatory bail is discretionary and depends on judicial evaluation of the facts, the role attributed to the applicant, and whether custodial interrogation is genuinely required.
An application for anticipatory bail may be maintainable where:
There is apprehension of arrest pursuant to an FIR or complaint
A complaint is likely to be registered
Summons or notices indicate possible coercive action
Allegations disclose commission of non-bailable offences
Depending on the facts and judicial precedents, anticipatory bail may be sought before or after registration of an FIR.
While deciding anticipatory bail applications, courts ordinarily consider:
Nature and gravity of the allegations
Role attributed to the applicant
Criminal antecedents, if any
Possibility of misuse of liberty
Requirement of custodial interrogation
Whether the complaint appears motivated or exaggerate
Each application is assessed on its own facts; no blanket rule applies.
