ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Firstly, I would like to thank my Drafting, Pleading and Conveyance teacher Ms.Shakuntala
Sangam for giving me such a golden opportunity to show my skills through this project. The
project is a result of an extensive research study, hard work and labour, that is put into to
make it worth reading.

I wish to acknowledge that in completing this project I had full support of my friends as well
as my teacher. This project would not have been completed without the help of my
university’s library Dr.Madhu Limaye library and through the university’s internet.
INTRODUCTION

Bail, in law, means procurement of release from prison of a person awaiting trial or an
appeal, by the deposit of security to ensure his submission at the required time to legal
authority. The monetary value of the security, known also as the bail, or, more accurately, the
bail bond, is set by the court having jurisdiction over the prisoner. The security may be cash,
the papers giving title to property, or the bond of private persons of means or of a
professional bondsman or bonding company. Failure of the person released on bail to
surrender himself at the appointed time results in forfeiture of the security. The law lexicon
defines bail as the security for the appearance of the accused person on which he is released
pending trial or investigation.Non-bailable offences are serious offences where bail is a
privilege and only the courts can grant it. On being arrested and taken into custody for a
serious or non-bailable crime, a person cannot ask to be released on bail as a matter of right.

After consideration of factors such as the seriousness of the offence, the chances that the
accused will interfere with the investigation by tampering with evidence or threatening
witnesses or if the accused is likely to go into hiding or leave the country to escape, the court
will decide whether he/she can be allowed to be let out on bail or not. If someone is refused
bail, he/she can appeal to a higher court.
Courts have greater discretion to grant or deny bail in the case of persons under criminal
arrest, e.g., it is usually refused when the accused is charged with homicide.

What is contemplated by bail is to "procure the release of a person from legal custody, by
undertaking that he/she shall appear at the time and place designated and submit him/herself
to the jurisdiction and judgment of the court."

A reading of the above definition make it evident that money need not be a concomitant of
the bail system. As already discussed above, the majority of the population in rural India,
lives in the thrall of poverty and destitution, and don't even have the money to earn one
square meal a day. Yet, they are still expected to serve a surety even though they have been
charged with a bailable offence where the accused is entitled to secure bail as a matter of
right. As a result, a poor man languishes behind bars, subject to the atrocities of the jail
authorities rubbing shoulders with hardened criminals and effectively being treated as a
convict.

FACTORS SEEN FOR GRANT OR DENIAL OF BAIL

Purpose of arresting a person is to secure the presence of the accused at the time of enquiry,
trial or other proceedings. However, consequences of pre-trial confinement are grave,
therefore, the provision of Bail is provided. Objective is to release on bail maximum number
of accused persons without seriously endangering the objective of arrest and trial since there
is presumption of innocence of an accused till he is found guilty.

It is improper to release on bail a person who-

a. Absconds or jumps bail


b. Is likely to destroy evidence
c. Tempers with prosecution witness or is likely to commit more offences

Circumstances in which release on bail is mandatory.

1. Arrestee not accused of non-bailable offence


a. Ready to execute / furnish bond
b. Bail- not excessive
c. Detention illegal (contravention of Section 436) (Officer will be guilty of wrongful
confinement under section 342 of IPC)

2. Investigation not complete within time prescribed

a. Maximum detention
b. 90 days - when punishment from the crime is more than 10 years
c. 60 days - all other cases
d. Object - investigation must be completed expeditiously and within reasonable time
3. No reasonable ground exists for believing the accused guilty of non-bailable offence

4. Trial before Magistrate not concluded within 60 days

5. No reasonable ground exists for believing the accused guilt after conclusion of trial but
before judgment.

 Relief

What is contemplated by bail is to "procure the release of a person from legal custody, by
undertaking that he/she shall appear at the time and place designated and submit him/herself
to the jurisdiction and judgment of the court."

In case a person is accused of a non-bailable offence it is a matter of discretion of the court to


grant or refuse bail and and application has to be made in court to grant bail.A person will not
be released if there are reasonable grounds for believing that he has been guilty of an offence
punishable with death or imprisonment for life; (or) Such offence is a cognizable offence and
he had been previously convicted of an offence punishable with death, imprisonment for life
or imprisonment for seven years or more, or he had been previously convicted on two or
more occasions of a non-bailable and cognizable offence. However a person under the age of
sixteen years or a woman or a sick or infirm person may be released on bail. If, at any time
after the trial of a person accused of a non-bailable offence and before judgment is delivered,
the Court feels that the accused is not guilty of any such offence, it shall release the accused
on bail.
