AND

ITS TYPES

Meaning of Bail

Bail is simply the short-term release of an accused person awaiting trial for an amount pledged for the accused's appearance. Bail is the judicial release of an accused who is charged with specific offences by imposing certain restrictions on him and gripping him to the Court of Law's jurisdiction. Getting bail is one of the accused's rights in a civil case, whereas it is at the discretion of the granting authority in a criminal proceeding.

4 TYPES OF BAIL

1. REGULAR BAIL

4. DEFAULT BAIL

3. INTERIM BAIL

2. ANTICIPATORY BAIL

1. REGULAR BAIL

When a person commits a cognizable non-bailable offence, the police may take him into custody, and the person must be sent to jail after the custody period. However, the accused's right to be released from custody has been mentioned in Sections 437 & 439 of the Code. As a result, regular bail is the release of the accused from police custody in order to ensure his appearance at the court hearing.

2. ANTICIPATROY BAIL

Anticipatory Bail is self-identified. This is the kind of bail granted to a person who is about to be arrested by the police for a non-bailable offence. This has been the most important bail in recent times because rivals in business or other powerful individuals frequently consider charging opponents with false cases. This is an advanced bail, as defined in Section 438 of the Code. Police cannot arrest someone who has been granted Anticipatory Bail.

3. INTERIM BAIL

This sort of bail is granted for a brief length of time and for transitory purposes, either while an application is pending or when the court is considering an application for anticipatory or regular bail. Interim bail is always conditional and may be prolonged; however, if it lapses before the accused has been requested for anticipatory bail or regular bail and he refuses to pay the money necessary for the continuation of the bail, the accused lost his right to freedom and will be brought into custody.

4. DEFAULT BAIL

This is a bail right that arises when the police fail to complete an investigation in regard to an individual in judicial custody within a certain period of time. This is also referred to as statutory bail or compulsive bail. the accused person is prepared to furnish bail, If the charge sheet hasn't been filed in court. This right is acquired after 90 days of incarceration in cases punishable by death, life imprisonment, or imprisonment for a term not less than ten years, and after 60 days of incarceration in all other cases. under  Section 167(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure
