Section 438(4) creates an absolute bar on anticipatory bail for the most serious sexual offences — rape by public servants, rape of minors under 16, and gang-rape of minors. All three sections listed in the question are covered by this bar.

  2. 2 Go to Section 438(4).
  3. 3 Read: 'Nothing in this section shall apply to any case involving arrest on accusation of offence under S.376(3), S.376AB, S.376DA, or S.376DB of IPC.'

The text reads: Section 438(4): Anticipatory bail not available for offences under S.376(3), S.376AB, S.376DA, S.376DB IPC.
