FIR transferred and Validity of Anticipatory bail


16-Nov-2023 (In Criminal Law)
This is related to 498a case. My wife filed 498a, 312, 354 and 420 case against me. She filed at the jurisdiction police station near her parents home in the month of September. After this I applied for anticipatory bail in Bangalore city sessions court. Anticipatory Bail got rejected. Then I again applied in High court and the anticipatory bail is granted. nnBut before the filing date of high court, FIR was transferred to the police station of my house jurisdiction and a new FIR number is registered and I got section 41a notice todayHigh court granted me anticipatory bail where the respondent being the initial police station where the FIR was initially lodged. Is my anticipatory bail still valid at the police station where the FIR got transferred ?

Yes. Anticipatory bail is still valid if the the place to where the FIR is transfered is under the jurisdiction of the High court which granted you Anticipatory bail. ie, if your FIR is transfered from one station to another within Karnataka and High court of Karnataka has granted you anticipatory bail, then it is still valid.
