Direction for grant of bail to person apprehending arrest. Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (Direction for grant of bail to person apprehending arrest) corresponds to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
Note: Anticipatory bail
Verify before you rely on this. Renumbering under the 2023 codes is not a clean one-to-one exercise — provisions were merged, split and reworded. Always check the printed bare act.
