The SC on Monday rejected the anticipatory bail plea of senior IPS officer PP Pandey, against whom a non-bailable warrant has been issued, in the Ishrat Jahan fake encounter case, saying his conduct in remaining absconding dis-entitled him for the relief.
“Your conduct itself makes you disentitled for this plea (bail),” a bench headed by Justice B S Chauhan said while referring to Pandey’s behaviour of not submitting to the jurisdiction of the trial court which had issued a non-bailable warrant against him.
