Accident case again

He knows that he is charged under section 279 and 337 IPC and release on bail by police and got his vehicle released. He is bound to appear for trial if informed, though no summon issued.

Agreed with the above view.

THanks for the comments.

I think his presence is not essential, as there is no summons or legal notice. But he can get anticipatory bail, if required to avoid harrasment by police. Police needs to send a report/charge-sheet to the magistrate for the issue of summons. He need not respond to the phone calls.

your are absolutly right madam.

Mr. Assumi

i beg to differ with you. getting bail does not necessarily mean filing of charge sheet. unless chargesheet is filed no prima facie case is made out and the accused is not required to appear before the court. though in  our trial courts accused appears from time to time. but as per view of the Hon'ble Apex Court an accused may remain absent till CS is filed.
