Interim arrest protection cannot survive dismissal of an unmaintainable anticipatory-bail application; GST arrest requires communicated statutory authorisation.
Notes
GST
Interim protection from arrest cannot survive dismissal of an anticipatory-bail application as not maintainable, because interim relief must remain ancillary to a pending substantive proceeding. Under the GST arrest framework, a summons does not itself make a person an accused or create a legally sustainable apprehension of arrest. Arrest requires the Commissioner's reasoned authorisation based on reasons to believe that a specified offence has been committed. That authorisation must be communicated before arrest, enabling the affected person to pursue anticipatory bail, judicial review, or other available remedies. Communication is a statutory procedural safeguard, not residual bail protection after dismissal.
