The high court, which had reserved its order last Friday, pronounced its order rejecting his anticipatory bail. The anticipatory bail plea was filed by Yeddyurappa following a summons by the trial court in a land scam case. Yeddyurappa, apprehending arrest, had sought anticipatory bail.
Although his petition has been rejected, it does necessarily lead to an arrest. However, he would now have to appear before the trial court hearing his case. The trial judge would now have the jurisdiction to either direct him to appear before the court or order his arrest.
A local lawyer had filed a complaint alleging Yeddyurappa's involvement in a land scam. The complaint was filed before the governor, who in turn sanctioned prosecution of the former CM. The trial court took cognisance of the matter and issued a summons to Yeddyurappa, who moved the high court seeking quashing of proceedings and also anticipatory bail.
Monday's order against the former chief minister would continue with no legal hitches unless the Supreme Court is moved in the next couple of days.
