DR. KAUSER EDAPPAGATH, J
DOLSEY JOSEPHINE SAJU – Appellant
Versus
THE STATE OF KERALA – Respondent
BAIL APPL. NO. 829 OF 2026 | CRIME NO.559/2025

The court determined that the bail application was moot due to absconding charges against the applicants.

Headnote:This case concerns an anticipatory bail application under section 420 IPC, arising from FIR No. 559/25. The applicants were accused of absconding, hence the court found the bail application infructuous and ultimately closed it. The core issue revolved around the charges of absconding against the applicants as indicated in the prosecuting submissions. The court established that the absconding charges render the current bail request moot. The bail application is closed.
