After this I applied for anticipatory bail in Bangalore city sessions court. Anticipatory Bail got rejected. Then I again applied in High court and the anticipatory bail is granted. But before the filing date of high court, FIR was transferred to the police station of my house jurisdiction and a new FIR number is registered and I got section 41a notice today. High court granted me anticipatory bail where the respondent being the initial police station where the FIR was initially lodged. Is my anticipatory bail still valid at the police station where the FIR got transferred ?
