JUDGMENT Jenkins, C.J. and Teunon, J. - u/s 75 of the Code of Criminal Procedure the seal of the Court is essential to the validity of a warrant. The absence of a seal in this case made the warrant void and there, consequently, was no legal arrest. We, therefore, make the Rule absolute. If the petitioners are on bail, the bail will be discharged; if in custody, they will be released.
