The bench of Justice Suresh Kumar Gupta further observed that as opposed to Section 439 of CrPC (provision governing regular bail pleas), which flows from Article 21 of the Constitution of India, Section 438 of CrPC is merely a statutory right and the power to grant anticipatory bail does not flow from Article 21 of the Constitution.
