  • Anticipatory Bail
    Anticipatory bail Under Indian criminal law, there is a provision for anticipatory bail under Section 438(1) of the Criminal Procedure Code. Law Commission of India in its 41st report recommended to incorporate this provision in procedure code.[1] This provision allows a person to seek bail in anticipation of an arrest on accusation of having committed a non-bailable offence. [2] On filing anticipatory bail, the opposing party is notified about the bail application and the opposition can then contest the bail application in court (public prosecutor can also be used to do this). Anticipatory bail is a direction to release a person on bail, issued even before the person is arrested. It is only issued by the Sessions Court and High Court. Eligibility When any person apprehends that there is a move to get him arrested on false or trumped-up charges, or due to enmity with someone, or he fears that a false case is likely to be built up against him, he has the right to move the court of Session or the High Court under section 438(1) of the code of Criminal Procedure for grant of bail in the event of his arrest for a cognizable or non- cognizable offence, and the court may if it thinks fit, direct that in the event of such arrest, he shall be released on bail. Anticipatory bail can be granted by [Sessions Court] and High Court. Conditions The High Court or the court of session may include such conditions in the light of the facts of the particular case, as it may think fit, including:[3] a condition that the person shall make himself available for interrogation by the police officer as and when required; a condition that the person shall not, directly or indirectly, make any inducement, threat or promise to any person acquainted with the facts of the case so as to dissuade him from disclosing such facts to the court or to any police officer; a condition that the person shall not leave India without the previous permission of the court.

  • Interesting Issues in Arrest and Interplay of GST Laws, IPC and PMLA
    Interesting Issues in Arrest and Interplay of GST laws, IPC and PMLA - Contributed by CA Sri Harsha & CA Manindar The recent decision1 of Supreme Court which has upheld the decision of Telangana & Andhra Pradesh High Court in the matter of PV Ramana Reddy & Others v. Union of India & Others2, wherein the High Court has held that arrest under goods & services tax laws (GST laws) is not dependent on the assessment, gives power to the authorities to tackle more efficiently with the economic frauds. In other world, the said judgment also gives power to authorities to intimidate genuine taxpayers and subject them to arrest. Hence, either appropriate changes to the legislation are to be done or instructions shall be laid by Central Board of Indirect Taxes & Customs (CBIC) when it comes for implementing the arrest provisions to see that genuine taxpayers are not harassed or subjected to intimidation and personal liberties are safeguarded. In this article, we shall deal with certain issues pertaining to arrest and related by examining various judgments of different High Courts. Allahabad High Court - Govind Enterprise’s case3: Facts & Allegations: Petitioner has huge inward supplies but very nominal outward supplies. The bank account given at the time of registration has very few transactions. Investigation revealed that there was another bank account and there were huge cash deposits. Revenue filed First Information Report (FIR) under Section 420, 467, 468, 471, 34, 120B of Indian Penal Code (IPC). The Revenue alleged that the Petitioner has dealt fraudulently with a dishonest intention, by submitting false documents, with an intention to evade taxes, obtained registration.

  • Grant of Anticipatory Bail
    October-2014 View this email in your browser GRANT OF ANTICIPATORY BAIL In India, the Criminal Procedure Code 1973 provides protection to persons anticipating or fearing arrest. The essential difference between regular bail and anticipatory bail is that while a regular bail is applied for by a person/ accused only after his arrest, anticipatory bail ("Anticipatory Bail") is applied for by a person in anticipation of his arrest and to secure orders from court to prevent the actual arrest. Also, no one deserves to face disgrace in case he is implicated in false cases. However, there are certain conditions under which an application for grant of Anticipatory Bail may be considered and it is not granted in a routine manner and depends on facts of the case To illustrate, in cases of economic offences, the protection of Anticipatory Bail is not a matter of right. However, if the Applicant is an established businessman, has roots in society then his application for Anticipatory Bail may not be denied merely because he has been accused of having committed an economic offence of any nature. In case of any violations under Foreign Exchange and Regulation Act, 1973 ("FERA"), if a person establishes that he is being unnecessarily harassed by the investigating agency, then the Court may grant Anticipatory Bail in his favour. EMPOWERMENT OF COURTS The High Courts and Court of Sessions ("Courts") in India are empowered to make an Order granting anticipatory bail that in the event of arrest; a person shall be forthwith released on bail without having to undergo the rigor of jail.

  • Right to Bail As a Constitutional Right
    [ VOLUME 6 I ISSUE 1 I JAN.– MARCH 2019] E ISSN 2348 –1269, PRINT ISSN 2349-5138 Right To Bail As A Constitutional Right Gurdeep singh1 & Dr. Razit Sharma2 1STUDENT, BA.LLB (H)., Final Year, Law College Dehradun, Uttaranchal University 2Assitant Professor, Faculty Of Law College Dehradun, Uttaranchal University Received: February 06, 2019 Accepted: March 12, 2019 ABSTRACT: Bail is the right to liberty in the criminal jurisprudence. It connotes the right to freedom of each and every person which is also a fundamental right under article 19 and article 21 of the Indian Constitution, in a true sense. Right to bail seeks to provide relaxation of the person accused of any offence to carry on with the daily task of life by getting release from the custody. Though there are several conditions requisite for claiming right to bail but in the criminal jurisprudence a person is presumed innocent unless proven guilty, the courts and constitution have taken a liberal approach in this individual’s right. The anticipatory bail provision is an enlargement of this right to bail which enable a person to seek bail in advanced before arrest can be made if a person is accused of certain offence. The classification of offences as Bailable and non bailable further ease the availability of this right .In cases of bailable offences, the bail can be claimed as matter of right and it cannot be denied usually but in case of non bailable offences it cannot be claimed as matter of right however application for the same can be made in good faith and the leaning of courts to grant bail in most cases gives force to the importance of this right in the individual pretext.

  • The Right of Getting Bail of an Arrested Person in Bangladesh—A Legal Study of Theories and Practice
    Beijing Law Review, 2014, 5, 34-48 Published Online March 2014 in SciRes. http://www.scirp.org/journal/blr http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/blr.2014.51004 The Right of Getting Bail of an Arrested Person in Bangladesh—A Legal Study of Theories and Practice Shahidul Islam, Golam Moula Department of Law, Northern University Bangladesh, Dhaka, Bangladesh Email: [email protected], [email protected] Received 26 November 2013; revised 25 December 2013; accepted 21 January 2014 Copyright © 2014 by authors and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The essential sense of the Bail in Bangladesh is to release a person from the custody of police and deliver him/her into the hands of the sureties who undertake to produce him in court whenever required to do so. The word Bail is derived from the old French verb “Bailer” which means to “give” or to “deliver”1 (Webster’s Dictionary, 1938). In common Law legal system, it is found that an ac- cused person is to be declared on bail, when he is released from the custody of the officers of the Court. The sureties are bound to produce him to answer at a specified date, time and place, the accusation against him when bail is approved by the competent court. The basic principle regard- ing release on bail is that an accused person is presumed in law to be entitled to freedom and every opportunity to look after his case, provided his attendance is secured by proper security.
